Audi “works” driver Allan McNish in the spotlight


Scot resides in Monaco
Son Finlay is a calming influence
Returns to Audi after three year spell in Formula 1

In peace lies strength? This saying is not valid for Allan McNish. The mercurial, jockey-like Scot (1.65 metres, 58 kilograms) is driven by a permanent zest for action. "I’m not very good at relaxing,” confesses the Audi "works” driver. Sunbathing on the beach in Monaco? Two hours in front of the television? Read a book? "No way – I’m always thinking about what’s coming up next.”

In particular, just how he can make his Audi A4 DTM even quicker? Just how his driving style can still be improved after more than 20 years in motorsport? The thoughts always revolve around the next race, the next test. Allan McNish is a pure blooded racing driver who finds it difficult to switch off but who knows that he must learn how to relax. "Otherwise I’ll burn out sometime or other.”

A true blooded hard core racer. After the fobble at Le Mans, Alan was extremely impressive how he helped bring the team back on track.

Nice pics.
