'Britain's Next F1 Star' is a new six-part series starting this week on Sky Sports F1 which will take an in-depth look at the next generation of British drivers who are attempting to reach the pinnacle of motorsport.
The six drivers featured - Seb Morris, Jordan King, Josh Hill, Alice Powell, Dean Smith and Alex Brundle - are all already working their way up the racing ladder, and Sky Sports F1 has been given unprecedented access to the drivers and their families.
Motorsport is a tough nut to crack and requires not just raw pace and talent, but an incredible amount of dedication and family support. The series will provide a unique insight into what happens away from the track and the level of support families are required to burden whilst a young driver makes his way up through the ranks. Indeed, in one episode Damon Hill comments that for the price of one season's racing, you could put seven people through university!
The six drivers featured in the series compete in a number of different categories, highlighting the many different routes into F1.
