Alex joined the Crash.net team in August of 2024 having covered consumer and racing motorcycle news at Visordown for two years.

Having begun watching motorsport in 2009, Alex originally decided he wanted to be an engineer. However, finding himself completely inept at both physics and maths, he decided he’d try to write about it instead.

He studied journalism at university, and has covered MotoGP, BSB, and WorldSBK, as well as some road racing coverage here and there.

When Alex isn’t writing about motorsport, his interests are wide-ranging.

From watching F1 to watching F2, from tweeting about MXGP to tweeting about Supercross, and from playing Dirt Rally 2.0 to playing EA WRC, Alex really is a deeply cultured guy.
