Let’s hear it for the drivers. We couldn’t have done it without them. So we thought we’d give them the chance to tell us what it was like to be part of the first ever Vodafone Taxi Grand Prix. You can also check out the driver awards and see who got what prize.
Driver Awards
Eddy went down a storm with our racing teams and never let them down. He was selected a total of 4,460 times during the season.
Our night owl. Sajid could regularly be found picking up fares till gone midnight. His longest day, 17 hrs, 23 minutes.
By the end of the season Robert’s capacity to take tea breaks was legendary. Put the kettle on Rob, it must be time for a brew.
374 people were picked up and dropped off by Graham during the Vodafone Taxi Grand Prix. It must have been his witty banter and devastating charm!
During the Hungarian Taxi Grand Prix Imtiaz picked up a fare that was just under 3 hours, from start to finish!
No we’re not talking about breaking speed limits. This award goes to Saeid for the average overall top speed - 40.8km per hour on the open road.
Andy kept us entertained with his cheeky banter throughout the season. We can’t repeat most of his jokes but he regularly had the race marshal in stitches.
The tortoise and the hare. Driving around London was always going to slow Colin down. It didn’t stop him turning out a stellar performance for us though.
Salar may have been the youngest driver but he was one of the best. And if you teamed him with Gerry you had the ultimate driving team.
If you were looking for the ultimate combination then you couldn’t do better than Salar and Gerry. Oh we hear Gerry’s also a dab hand with a paint brush.
