Johnny to join Sky Sports F1 team at Australian GP as new season gets underway

Johnny has joined up with the rest of the Sky Sports F1 team in Melbourne as the start of the new season gets ever nearer.

The Australian Grand Prix will be the first race on the 21-nation calendar, as 11 teams prepare to battle it out on tracks all across the world in a bid to clinch the biggest motorsport prize of all.

Johnny is part of a Sky Sports F1 line-up that boasts three other former F1 drivers, including 1996 world champion Damon Hill, together with Martin Brundle and new arrival Paul Di Resta.

He also joins Simon Lazenby, David Croft, Natalie Pinkham, Ted Kravitz and Rachel Brookes in the fifth season of Sky Sports F1, the only place to watch all 21 races live.

Sky Sports F1 will show the first race of the season from Melbourne exclusively live on Sunday.
