Excluvive interviews

Post

Hi all,

I'm trying to publish exclusive interviews on the website, though this is not very easy because we don't go to every GP and don't meet the F1 drivers in person. Today, I've published an interview with the former Minardi F1 test driver Bas Leinders. You can find the interview here: http://www.f1technical.net/news/3573

I hope that you all like this initiative, because I have to have a lot of patience to get emails back from F1 drivers and teams and most of the time they just say that an interview isn't possible if I'm not present in the paddock.

Enjoy the interview and I hope that a lot of good, exclusive interviews will follow :wink:

Also people... are there particular people that you would like to have interviewed? Some driver, an engineer?

Let us know and we'll do what we can ;)

Principessa, you never ciese to amaze me! How you got an interview with an actual F1 driver I'll never know, but also it was really informative and interesting, Congratulations.

On Tomba's post, it would be brilliant to find out how some of the engineers got where they are and how they would get there now, if you see what I mean.

Well done guys.

Thx for the compliment Tom!

I'm trying to get an interview with Alexander Wurz now and I have to say that things are going into the good direction, so I hope that I can please you with that interview very soon.

I'll try to get an interview with one of the engineers as well...I promise :wink:

Some medias pay to get interviews while some other medias like f1technical simply have better journalists who use their skill to get interviews :wink:

Great news. He always seems very accomodating during interviews and very friendly. Make sure you take a camera and get a few pics.

A video camera even better. If you can get an interview with a driver like Wurz then you ought to replace Loise Goodman on TV!

that's another step ahead for f1technical.net, the site looks more and more proffesional. The development blog looks better than f1.com one, we have history..., and now interviews with f1 insiders. i'm very proud of being a f1tech member

keep going that way! and very good job :D

If he is like his father than you should beware :P

Just kidding, I think its great for you to make contacts with drivers before they enter F1 and become hard to get. I mean, perhaps some of them will appreciate what you've done for their promotion and give you a special treatment once they become F1 stars :wink:
