Hello everyone, Scott Parkin here from FVTV, and welcome to the second edition of ‘An Interview With:’. The feature where I have a short chat with various figures from the world of Formula Virtual. Today, we are with a man who has gained a level of notoriety before even appearing in Formula Virtual, a real character who will become the 76th driver to participate in a full race weekend when he lines up for Phoenix Motorsport at the Brazilian V-Prix next week. He is James Thompson, or ‘JT’, and I’m here with him today at Phoenix’s base to find out a little more about him, and his time so far at the Mancunian team.
Welcome to another edition of the ‘Let’s get to know…’ series, hosted by me Scott Parkin of FVTV. This series aims to, whilst keeping it short and sweet, provide an insight into various people from inside the Formula Virtual paddock ranging from the famous drivers to the behind-the-scenes staff at some of the teams. Today we are joined by the youngest driver on the grid who is currently in his second season in Formula Virtual. He has had a very successful junior career - picking up wins in each of his four seasons in Formula Virtual’s feeder series – and has been signed by three times champions Franklin to make the step up to the top tier of Virtual Motorsport for next season. Welcome Danilo!
