What's the best thing about F1?
The incredible speeds they manage to get the cars to roar around the track.
Any similarities between the buzz of F1 and the buzz of live music?
In both F1 and live music you have to put on a show, lots of work goes into the performance and it’s best when you are in the zone and going off instinct.
Favourite driver?
Checo [Sergio Perez].
Favourite team
Red Bull.
Favourite F1 circuit?
Silverstone.
If you could pick one of your songs to be the new theme tune for F1, which would it be and why?
Flying. This track is super-fast and the production is all action.
What are your favourite memories from following Formula 1?
I’m new to watching F1 so I’ll pick the last British Grand Prix as it was a great race.
Which F1 driver do you think would make the best music artist and why?
