Who said that?

Social media isn't about who has the most followers, or who can get the most retweets on a post. It's about who can use it effectively to get a point across. Who can use a simple tool like tweeting and use it to their advantage?

Twitter is a wonderful creation. Kudos to the guys who created it. It's great on all levels, whether you're a fan girl checking up on what Justin Bieber ate for breakfast, or if you're using it as a link between professionals to network yourself and to keep up to date with what is going on in Formula 1. I am the latter. Sorry, but Formula 1 trumps Justin Bieber any day.

Networking on twitter enables you to get out there to Formula 1 teams, drivers and other personnel. Give them something to talk about. Give them a reason to tweet you back. Make sure they never forget you.

On the Red Bull F1 Spy App

Lots of different Formula 1 related blogs have surfaced lately, all very unique but still link back to the same subject that we are all so enthusiastic about.

Blogs connect fans together as they can voice opinions and their own views on the sport. We all support a different team and a different driver, so it's interesting to be able to read all about our goings on in the sport.

This blog began in February just before I set off for the first pre season testing in Barcelona. My intention with this blog was to engage fans with what I get up to in the world of Formula 1.

It's important for me to interact with other fans and voice one of the many views of Formula 1.



I write what interests me and what I feel will interest my readers. Being 19 years old I want to keep people reading and have come up with a number of ways to do this.
I created the #CaptionThis hash tag, where photos from the race weekend get put up, and YOU knock yourself out thinking up witty, clean, captions to tickle us and keep us occupied until the next race weekend.
Another question on everyones lips is "What would a Formula 1 driver sing during a late night karaoke session?" Too long to fit in a hash tag so the #F1Karaoke was born. I tweet drivers, teams and personnel to wonder what they would sing on a wild night out. These are the important things we want to know.

Connecting with fans and people of Formula 1 is what I live for. It's what I'm passionate about and take whatever chance I can to ensure this dream to be a reality. If I am lucky enough to become the #SMDriver for Marussia, at the British Grand Prix courtesy of Monster jobs, it will give me the opportunity to strut my stuff in the paddock and show that girls rule in Formula 1.
