Three months as a racing driver
Through the magazine's AUTOSPORT Performance supplement, SCOTT MITCHELL got to train like a racing driver for three months. And it opened his eyes to the extent true professionals must go in the pursuit of performance
Autosport Magazine
Autosport is the UK's must-read motorsport magazine! It is revered by fans and industry personnel alike as the ultimate source of motorsport news and analysis.
The last three months have been pretty big. I've started living like an Aston Martin Racing driver, tested a Formula Renault at Silverstone and made my Le Mans 24 Hours debut. Not bad for a journalist who spends his time writing about motorsport because he never had the talent nor resources to make a profession out of driving.
The last three months are the probably the closest I'll ever get. Those of you who have read the magazine's driver-dedicated quarterly supplement AUTOSPORT Performance will know all about our work prising tips from the experts. Over the summer, we put our money where our mouth is.
