Popular F1 broadcaster and former racing driver Martin Brundle has been named OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) for his notable services in motorsports in broadcasting. His name came up on the honor list released by the royal palace on the eve of the New Year.
Martin Brundle is a popular name in the world of F1. In 1984, he made his debut and raced for multiple teams, including Jordan and McLaren. In 158 race starts, Brundle clinched nine podium finishes and a total of 98 career points. However, winning a race is a milestone he failed to reach in his decade-long career.
Meanwhile, following his retirement as a professional racing driver in 1996, Brundle transitioned into the broadcasting world. He worked as a motorsports pundit for multiple British media publications, including the BBC and Sky Sports.
