MotorsTV UK Official Blog

Hey everyone,

So this is my first blog for Motors TV! I’m very excited about getting asked to do this .

For those who don’t know, I’m a motocross rider. My team is MVR-D Suzuki and this year, for the first time ever, the Women’s World Championship will be live on TV all thanks to the help of Motors!!
I’ve been at home in Ireland for a few weeks doing some men’s races to help get ready for the start of the Women’s World champs on 5th of April.

Normally I live in England with my team but as the women do not compete at all rounds of the men’s World and British champs (I also do the women’s British series), it is better for me to be at home right now riding in the Irish championships and means that I also get some time with my family!

Today I passed my driving test . Now I’m just about go to the gym and tomorrow I will try do some riding before packing up to go back to England on Wednesday. I won’t be there long – Thursday we leave for Bulgaria in time for the season’s first Women’s World MX GP this weekend! I can’t wait!!

Alright, that’s enough from me just now. I will keep you all posted on how my first race goes.

Speak soon

Hi there Motors TV viewers!

I’m Tom Hornsby, one of the site’s new editorial team who have recently taken over the running of the .co.uk connection. We’ve been working hard over the last month or two updating 2009 info, implementing new features and generally giving the whole domain a mini revamp.

You may also have noticed that the news content has changed. That’s because we’re concentrating on bringing you all the info that might not be given the time of day on other dedicated motorsport websites to tie in neatly with our 2009 programme line-up. That’s why there’s no F1 content here because unless you’ve been living under rock for the past six months, you’ll know that a certain other broadcaster got those rights.

Anyway, this blog is just the latest addition to what we hope will bring the drivers of your favourite championships a little bit closer to the fans. For starters, we’ve got British F3 drivers aplenty so look out for the stars of the world’s best domestic single-seater category airing their un-PRed views here in the not too distant future.

Also, we’re calling all budding scribes to help out with feature articles. So, if you’ve got a good story idea, it’s relevant, won’t get us sued and fancy your name up in lights then why not get in touch. What’s the worst that can happen?

And remember, there’s always the forum for you to air your opinions, frustrations and thoughts.

Here’s to a good 2009; credit crunch, climate change and all.
