After 12 fabulous years I’m leaving Auto Express and Autovia at the end of March.
I've had an amazing time doing some incredible things.
Sad to be leaving the team and titles I love, but the car business and people who work in it are awesome and that’s where I’ll be staying.

First rule of PR - don’t be the news. But a one-day exception; three brilliant brands, all at pivotal points, and feel very lucky to be there to tell the stories. Couldn’t be happier or more excited to be joining the great team at Renault Group UK from September.

@TheBishF1 @diagonalcomms @jredownes @AnnieBWansford @HolmesTW Massive congratulations Matt and team, love the name! Best of luck, but doubt you’ll need it.
English
Over the past few months I’ve been working hard on setting up a new venture - it’s called @DiagonalComms - & it’s great to be able to announce it today. I’ll be working with @JREDownes, @AnnieBWansford & @HolmesTW. More details in the link below.

@SteveFowler @ssproule101 Me and Stan almost lost one (maybe that one) on a beach famous for sinking sand. Tide was coming in and a dog walker gave us the warning. We *just* managed to drive it out.
English
Borrowed one of these from my good friend @ssproule101 when he was at Ford in 1995.
Put it through a car wash and, er…
I never did like that whale tail 😬

@iamguyn Oh no, terrible news. Such a lovely guy. Thoughts with his family. This has not been a kind year…

Heartbroken to get the sad news this morning that Andy Hallberry has passed away. A wonderful friend for over 30 years and a fantastic writer. Our friendship was more than just motor racing. I’ll miss him terribly.

@BertieRedfern @AdamTowler @Ryan_Champion @colmcklein Neil was (probably still is!) a portrait photographer. Very unpredictable photographing these guys. We had one go wrong with Colin once. Long story but we had a lot of fun mainly!
English
@AdamTowler @Ryan_Champion @colmcklein I only know what's in the magazine sorry! But @Goldboy73 is on here and I'm guessing McKlein has the rights...

Now difficult to believe rallying enjoyed F1 levels of interest at the time… #rallylegends

Episode 2 of #StoriesFromSuperTouring is now out!
In this week’s episode, we’re joined by @PaulONeill29 & @Goldboy73 to look back at the 1999 #BTCC season opener at @DoningtonParkUK, where @MattNealRacing & @TeamDynamics took a historic 1st victory!

@jrendell Can’t believe that was a cover! Must have been a very quiet week…

@norramot If it’s possible, can you remind him that he wrote my favourite picture caption ever. The picture: Kenny Brack refuelling in an IndyCar race. The caption: “Oh my God, they filled Kenny”. Pure genius

It’s with great heartache that I inform you that Arron Sr will not make a recovery.
The wonderful NHS has done everything it can for him. But the time is now fast approaching to say goodbye.
Our focus now is on sharing as much positivity and love with him in the remaining days.

I need to report that my dad @SimonArron is very unwell. He’s serious but stable. I know he’s widely loved and respected, but I’m not able to directly contact everyone. If anybody has any messages or has been trying to get in touch with him, you can contact me by DM.
English
@norramot So very sorry to hear this Tom. You and your family will be in my thoughts at what must be a very difficult time. Wishing you the best.
English
Dad remains stable, but in a very serious condition.
After a positive start to last week, serious complications have arisen. We don’t know if/when he will recover or what that may look like.
We, with my sister taking the lead, will continue to let him know how loved he is.

@norramot Thanks for the update, great news! Hope the positive progress continues
English
After a very scary couple of days in the week, Arron Sr remains stable. Things feel tentatively more positive over the weekend.
Hopefully I will soon be able to share the many wonderful messages you’ve all sent with him.
And I will keep responding where I can in the meantime x

My hubby Angel & I posing outside the Roundhouse, Chalk Farm, ready for tonight’s #AttitudeAwards. Well, the invitation said ‘Dress code: camp & glam’.

@MrStuartForrest @mikeyharvey I look for those in 2FA codes! They come up all the time!

@mikeyharvey Good numbers. I went through a phase when I was in the 900s of targeting favourite Porsche model designations. I am a very strange man.

The Oscar Piastri saga has got very personal at times, but this week's CRB ruling has finally offered some key answers about what really happened behind the scenes. #F1 motorsport.com/f1/news/real-s…

Which one are you having?
1995 Ford Probe 24v
Or
1999 Mazda Xedos 6 2.0 SE Automatic.

A beautiful heartfelt tribute to one of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet, let alone work with. So much fun, so many laughs with him during my time as a WRC reporter. Too few catch-ups since then. RIP.
