David Hobbs Autograph

If you watch Formula One coverage on Speed in the U.S., you are familiar with announcer analyst David Hobbs. He's the oldest, quirkiest, and Britishest of the three.

Aside from his TV gig, he also owns a Honda dealership in Wisconsin. He was kind enough to send me the above autograph, gratis.

His racing background is incredibly diverse-- he has raced in Formula One, Nascar, Can Am, IMSA, 24 Hours of Le Mans, and Indy cars, among others.

Here is a beautiful collection of cars he has driven over his career, which was showcased at the Amelia Island Concours last year.

Here is a clip he did from Imola 20 years ago. Check out the red Alfa Romeo medical cars in the background!
