 | | Alex duly won the two-day shoot out at Silverstone, and with it the then BRDC prize of £75,000 and a McLaren F1 test drive, to great excitement, with Autosport proclaiming him Britain’s new F1 hope. |
 | | Alex had promoted the Isle of Man strongly since his family move to the island in 2001, earning him the Isle of Man Young Sportsman of the Year award, and there was much talk of backing from the small but steeped-in-motorsport British Island for the following year. |
 | | Alex and his fiancée Sam, hardly ever seen apart outside the car, were referred to as the “Posh and Becks”; of the paddock, and the media flocked around them. |
