“Winning on film” 📸 Some memories deserve to be captured the classic way so I took a disposable camera to Abu Dhabi and history took care of itself! Only one man could help bring this film to life - the stupidly talented Henrik Ringner 🧡 Enjoy!

In 2019, our race engineer said we should take a photo at every race. So we started by holding our rookie like a salmon, and what began as a simple photo grew into something meaningful - for us, our friends and fans! In 2025, that salmon turned into a world champion 🏆

….and Bob’s your uncle! 🇬🇧 The one we all wanted! 🇬🇧 We won the British GP! It rained cats and dogs but the geezers pulled off another 1-2! Also chuffed to see the Hulk on the podium - an absolute blinder! Forty winks until we are in Belgium so time for a cuppa 🫖

Triple header over and we come away with a bucket load of points. A few key notes - • Seeing yourself on a lift is wrong on so many levels. • A podium from above and seeing the team’s happiness is extremely heart warming. • @LongmanF1 is still as long as he was in 2021.

Not a bad come back so far trackside with @McLarenF1 2 from 2 & 1 for each side of the garage. 👌Even got to see how it feels for most people when they talk to me 😂

This pitstop will probably be the pinnacle of my F1 career. This stop had to be under 4s to win the championship. With that in mind we perform the fastest stop of the race, not even a flinch. “The score takes care of itself”
It's time for the last DHL Fastest Pit Stop of the 2024 season, and it belongs to our world champions, @McLarenF1! #F1 #DHLF1 #AbuDhabiGP

Wrote a chapter on @FrazerBurchell for my book #F1RacingConfidential he is @LandoNorris No2 mechanic and as luck would have it we chatted on the grid before the #MIAMIGP where Lando took his first #F1 win Brilliant work Lando and Frazer! Congrats! Book is out now from @OMaraBooks

The 2024 season has begun and the rollercoaster starts again but I have finally been able to read F1 Racing Confidential! I am lucky to have a chapter in the book as the “pitstop mechanic” but @Giles_Richards must have interviewed a different man as what lovely words! 1/2

I hope this book shows how there is no straight forward path to a career in F1 and every answer you could want is within. Every chapter gives a different view, opinion and perspective of a role. However passion is what we all share. I hope this inspires the next! 2/2 – at Leatherhead, South East
