Bernie Collins: Former Aston Martin strategy head joins Sky Sports F1 2023 coverage

The brawny, intrepid pugilists that grace the silver screen when one tune into their preferred squared circle might be brawny and robust, but they are, in fact, thespians that project a certain personality. When the cameras stop rolling, they are simply individuals with authentic existences and genuine families.

These devastating prizefighters are frequently contentedly wedded or ensconced in devoted partnerships, often with knockouts of a disparate sort.

“I am sincerely enthusiastic to initiate this novel chapter with the Sky Sports F1 team and express my gratitude to them for this coveted opportunity,” declared Collins.

“After extensive years on the pit wall, I am eager to embrace this fresh role within F1 from a spectator’s perspective and enhance their racing experience.”

The Director of F1 for Sky Sports, Billy McGinty, stated: “I am particularly thrilled to collaborate with Bernie who will add an uncharted dimension and unparalleled insights to our programming.

“We are hopeful that our audience will acquire a copious amount of knowledge from Bernie on the intricacies of the garage and the pit wall during race weekends.”

The esteem accorded to Collins in the Formula 1 paddock is unequivocal, with her erstwhile Aston Martin colleague, Dan Fallows, tweeting, “This is an astute move by Sky; Bernie is remarkably knowledgeable and esteemed.”
