Gary Watkins has, for reasons best known to himself, devoted all his working life to covering sportscar racing. This season is his 29th as a motorsport journalist, during which time he has reported on major long-distance events on four continents and approaching 70 24-hour races. He reckons a degree in political philosophy makes him well qualified for covering the sometimes Machiavellian world of international sportscars.

Gary, who also writes for Autoweek, Motor Sport, Autocourse, RACER and others, lives in Surbiton but spends more time on the road than at home for most of the year.

Tom Errington is Autosport's American Racing reporter, after moving across from sister company Motorsport Stats at the beginning of 2018. Having lived in South Carolina for almost three years, it's not surprising he has ended up covering NASCAR and IndyCar after returning to England and studying sports journalism at Huddersfield University.

Tom has also covered international events for Autosport, including the Le Mans 24 Hours, the DTM, the Blancpain GT Series and the European Formula 3 Championship.

Away from motor racing, Tom mostly despairs at the current state of Newcastle United, but also finds time for the latest cinema blockbusters and video games.

James Newbold is the editor of Autosport's Performance and Engineering supplements. After completing his Politics and International Relations degree at the University of East Anglia in 2015, in a sign of things to come, he left his graduation ceremony early to cover the Spa 24 Hours. He joined the Autosport staff in 2018 after a period as a freelancer, mostly covering sportscar racing for a range of online publications, and has a keen interest in uncovering the stories behind unsuccessful motorsport programmes. He counts an interview with Mario Andretti as his career highlight to date.

Jack Cozens is Autosport.com's International Editor and unofficial Hungarian touring car driver expert.

He joined Autosport's Academy programme in 2015, shortly before graduating from Bournemouth University, and became the first junior to attend a race meeting outside of Europe for the publication when he covered the World Touring Car Championship finale in Qatar that year. A stint of 10 months as part of the Autosport and Motorsport News National team followed, before he assumed his current role in June 2017.

Outside of the motorsport world, Jack is the heir to Sevenoaks' bagel empire and a keen Sunday league footballer, whose anger (at himself) usually outstrips his talent.
