Who is Formula 1 journalist and author Michael Lamonato?
Michael Lamonato will never forget his first Formula 1 experience. He hated every minute of it. The cars were too fast. The engines were too loud. The crowds were too dense. It wasn’t for him. But sometimes you don’t realise when the bug bites you. On that apparently lamentable day in the Albert Park sunshine, Formula 1 had imperceptibly inserted itself underneath his skin. Then, not yet 10 years old, by his teenage years, Michael had developed what would turn out to be a lifelong affliction.
Michael Lamonato is an experienced journalist deeply embedded in the world of F1. Michael covers F1 events worldwide and writes for Fox Sports Australia and Racer in the United States. The median lifespan of a podcast is around six months, but Michael has been podcasting with Box of Neutrals since 2010.
