The Third Man: Interview with Anthony Davidson
by David Cameron
As hard as it can be to access Formula One nowadays, it's even harder to impress the paddock by simply driving two hours every other Friday. But with some talent, good timing and a very good car - Anthony Davidson is doing just that.

And if it was up to him, he'd go to Ferrari and tell Michael Schumacher to bugger off... David Cameron sat down with Davidson for an exclusive interview, about fresh tyres, pay drives and life at BAR

Atlas F1's Richard Barnes analyses them
