Donnelly To Serve As FIA Steward In Korea

Northern Irishman Martin Donnelly has been confirmed as the FIA driver representative steward at this weekend's Korean Grand Prix at Yeongam. Donnelly, 48, started in 13 Formula 1 races between the end of 1989 and the 1990 season.

He made his Formula 1 debut at the 1989 French Grand Prix driving for Arrows, finishing his first ever Formula 1 race three laps down in twelfth position. One year later Donnelly joined Derek Warwick, who was the FIA driver representative steward last time out in Suzuka, at Lotus. During qualifying at Jerez in Spain, he suffered a serious crash, which ended his Formula 1 career.

Last year Donnelly had been appointed as the FIA driver representative in Korea and will yet again take up the role at the Yeongam circuit this weekend.
