Services
Freelance from Rugeley, UK — open to remote, hybrid or on-site briefs, and happy to travel for race weekends. Below is what tends to land in my inbox most often.
Practice / qualifying / race reports plus quick-turn news and paddock features. I’ve produced up to 12 pieces in a single Grand Prix weekend.
Long-form Q&As and feature pieces. I’ve sat across from Guy Smith, Derek Bell, Mark Blundell, Nelson Piquet Jr, Sebastien Buemi, Vincenzo Sospiri and Antonio Giovinazzi.
Diversifying into PR copy and social-first motorsport content for teams, drivers and brands in the wider racing ecosystem.
Driver profiles, rookie deep-dives and historical lookbacks — the slower-burn pieces that actually make readers stay on page.
The pit lane
A simple four-step process that keeps editors and brands updated without becoming a calendar burden.
A short call or email to lock the angle, length, deadline and outlet voice.
Outreach, interviews, paddock conversations and proper sourcing — no rewrite jobs.
Clean copy filed on time, in your house style, with suggested headlines and pull quotes.
One round of revisions included by default. Quick turnarounds on follow-ups during a race weekend.
Good fits
Editors who need a reliable freelance contributor across F1, F2, IndyCar and WEC — race weekends or feature commissions.
PR teams and athlete management who need a writer who already understands the sport — releases, ghost-written features, social copy.
Sponsors, suppliers and motorsport-adjacent brands who want content that doesn’t read like a press release.
Rates
Rates depend on outlet, format, deadline and travel. I quote per piece (or per weekend for race coverage) so you always know what you’re committing to before any work starts. Get in touch with the brief and I’ll come back with a number.
Send the angle, the outlet, the deadline. I’ll come back with a quote and a delivery plan.
