Lights out and away we go with Crofty!

About this episode

With Betty away, Team Principal Greg has booked an elite tier reserve driver to join him and Christian; the voice of modern Formula One David Croft aka Crofty.


And they waste no time in fully introducing him into the world of The Fast and The Curious. After getting an insight into where his commentary career got started at a bar in Las Vegas he's introduced to previous guest Anne to discuss kissing tracks and his favourite moments from his history in the sport.


Crofty also gives some listeners' mundane moments the full "lights out and away we go" treatment and gets a surprise message from one of his Sky F1 colleagues.
