“I think the most fun I’ve ever had racing any car has been in Caterhams. With the way they tow off each other it’s the most exciting racing I’ve known. I’ll always say that to anybody. It’s not necessarily the fastest car, but the racing and whole package has been by far the most enjoyable. That and the fact obviously I’ve done well in it!”

When it comes to Caterhams, there aren’t many who come close to Danny Winstanley – in terms of raw speed, as well as the trophies and title successes to match as a driver and team owner.

A proud Yorkshireman, Stefan Mackley is Autosport's National Deputy Editor. Having graduated from the University of Central Lancashire with a degree in sports journalism he spent nearly four years working on local newspapers in Wiltshire - during which time he became an NQJ-qualified journalist and cut his teeth covering club racing at Castle Combe in his spare time.

Making the jump into motorsport journalism full-time, he joined the national desk for both Autosport magazine and Motorsport News in 2017 before becoming National Deputy Editor for the former in 2020.

His passion for motorsport stems from watching Formula 1 as a child with his father and is matched only by his love for Star Wars.

A better journalist than racing driver, he has so far competed in the Citroen C1 24 Hours and 116 Trophy with hopes of racing more machinery in 2021 and beyond.
