Onlineability is delighted to be continuing its association with racing drivers Sam Bird and Duncan Tappy for the 2012 season.

The Hitchin-based web consultancy provides website support for both drivers – you can visit Sam’s site here and Duncan’s here.

In 2012 Sam will continue his work as a development driver with the Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One team. In this role he does considerable simulator work to help develop the car with which Nico Rosberg won his first Grand Prix in China this weekend.

He also attends races in case a reserve driver is needed and is keeping his open-wheel skills sharp by racing in the Formula Renault 3.5 series.

Meanwhile Duncan is driving a McLaren MP4-12C for ART Grand Prix alongside Frenchman Grégoire Demoustier in the Blancpain Endurance Series, an international GT series organised in parallel with the FIA GT3 European Championship and the GT4 European Cup.

The series boasts a Europe-wide calendar on circuits including Silverstone, Monza and the Nurburgring, and its signature event is the 24 Hours of Spa endurance race.

We wish both of them the very best for the 2012 season. To keep up with the careers of other British drivers competing in open-wheel motorsport, please visit our site Brits on Pole.
