Biography

Martin Donnelly made his F1 debut in 1989, driving for the Arrows team in place of fellow F1 steward Derek Warwick. A good performance saw him snapped up by Lotus, with whom he raced in 1990. Unfortunately, Donnelly was only 12 races into his career when he suffered a horrific accident during practice for the Spanish Grand Prix.

His F1 career was over, but he continued to race in other series, and has made guest appearances at motorsport events - for example, racing up the Goodwood Hill. He has his own racing Academy in Norfolk, and joined the F1 stewarding team to oversee the current crop of driving stars.
