      I honestly think that F1 has the best ever set of drivers away from the track.
      I'm 45 and can't remember a time when I had so much interest in drivers throughout the grid due to things they do to help others.

      2) his mum was released from jail in 2015, years before he even made his debut in F1, so yeah she served her time and is allowed to be proud of her incredible son.

    Alex deserves everything he has earned. Especially as most of the Commentators at Sky and else where played a part in bringing him down at Red Bull with the constant negative comments being made. So to see Ted go out and meet him and come to realise that Alex is a decent young man making his way in the world and not only driving really well at Williams but giving back to his native land too. Bravo Alex.
