Sam Hall

Sam Hall is an Autosport News Editor, a role he began in May 2023 after three years of working full-time in Formula 1.

He completed a degree in Sports Journalism at the University of Central Lancashire in 2013 while finding work placement opportunities with British Touring Cars and Formula Ford. He also worked briefly as a freelancer alongside the Gulf SportsCar Championship in Dubai.

Sam has been a motorsport fan for as long as he can remember and spent his youth racing model cars around track layouts recreated with Brio. Now with two young daughters, he expects to revive this pastime in the near future.
