Perry McCarthy is one of Britain's top racing drivers and is already part of motor racing folklore. Perry's 10-year fight to reach the sport's elite paid off in 1992 when he was chosen to drive for the fledgling Andrea Moda Formula One organisation. The dream however turned into a nightmare as the team stumbled from one disaster to the next and in recent years he has turned his attention away from Grand Prix to Le Mans and the demands of Sports Prototype racing.
His ability to grab everyone's attention and make them laugh has ensured that we book him on a regular basis David Ingram - Audi PR Manager
In detail
In 2002 he was actually co-presenter with Damon Hill of the Sky TV digital F1 coverage - a shame it was such a boring season of F1! More recently, for the past two years he was the mysterious character 'The Stig' on BBC's Top Gear program, the identity of whom baffled many viewers for a long time.
What he offers you
Perry is renowned for his sense of humour and sideways look at life. His quick wit and ability to deride himself, and others, has entertained spectators, race guests and even rival teams and drivers, in pit lanes, paddocks and bars across the world. Perry is in high demand to give inspirational and motivational speeches which link his background, experience and attitude to the business world and its requirements.
How he presents
His bubbly personality and sense of humour make him the number one choice in his field for a broad range of corporate communication requirements. It has been said that he talks with the same passion and conviction he displayed in his own career. Perry happily invites audiences to ask him questions about cars, driving, Top Gear and Formula One before signing autographs (if required).
