It’s a homecoming of sorts for Hinch, who raced for A1 Team Canada in 2006/07 and 2007/08. He also made an appearance as pitlane reporter last season in Sepang, Malaysia for A1GP TV.
“I am thrilled that A1GP has asked me to be part of the pit lane line up for Season Four,” he said on the announcement Monday (27 October). “I got the opportunity to work with A1GP TV last season and it’s great to now be on board full-time. This is shaping up to be the best season of A1GP yet, with the introduction of the new (powered by Ferrari) car, and it’s awesome to think that I get to watch all the action unfold from pit lane.”
Scot Diana Binks is no stranger to fans of BBC Channel 4 in the U.K. where she hosts a late-night sports show and a regular sports broadcast host in varied genres from auto racing to triathlon events. She cut her teeth during a grueling stint at the Le Mans 24-hour race in the pit lane.
“I am delighted to be joining the A1GP Team,” she said. “I am equally looking forward to teaming up again with Ben Edwards having worked with him previously in the British Touring Car Championship. To be joining the team is very exciting, it will present many new challenges and I can’t wait. I look forward to the prospect of working with John and James and hope that my experience will add to what is already a great team.”
