I grew up on a bit of a farm, so when I was a lot younger we had a Land Rover Defender, which is what I first learnt to drive in. I"d do the gears sat on my dad"s lap and turn the steering wheel. Then I had the clich story really where I fell into motorsport by accident. My parents didn"t race themselves or anything like that. It was my older brother that dragged the family go-karting for the first time at our local track (Castle Combe) and I quite quickly followed him into it. Initially I wasn"t as quick as him. I think I just enjoyed the buzz and the whole atmosphere of go-karting, but it didn"t take me long to pick up that competitive sibling rivalry.
