Friday favourite: The "incredible" Le Mans racer that staged a memorable comeback

Oliver Turvey’s technical insight and feedback has made him an important component of several motorsport outfits for more than a decade, not least the McLaren Formula 1 team. Having joined the Woking-based team in 2010, first as a development driver before taking on a testing role, it’s a position that Turvey still occupies today.

During that time the now 37-year-old has also competed in several championships, most predominately in Formula E where he spent eight seasons, all with NEXTEV TCR before it morphed into NIO 333. A career-best finish of 10th in the 2017-18 drivers’ standings came via his only Formula E podium in Mexico City, as well as a further five points finishes.
