Arvid Lindblad: How far can Formula 1's youngest driver go?

Arvid Lindblad: How far can Formula 1's youngest driver go?

Aged only 18 years old, Britain's Arvid Lindblad is set to make his Formula 1 debut this weekend in Australia. The Racing Bulls driver will be the youngest racer on the grid, and the youngest Briton to ever compete in Formula 1.

Earlier this year, Lindblad talked to the BBC's F1 correspondent, Andrew Benson, about his route into the sport, and explained why, despite his young age, his Formula 1 debut is something he's been preparing for for most of his life.

He also considers how he's been shaped by growing up in a mixed-heritage household in the UK, as the son of a Swedish father and a British-Indian mother, and shares the values that his parents and grandparents have instilled in him.

Andrew Benson also talks to More than the Score's Ade Adedoyin about what's expected of Arvid Lindblad in his debut season. What would constitute success for Lindblad, and can he impress his bosses at an organisation with a demanding reputation?

Every Monday to Friday, More than the Score tells stories beyond the scoreline from all over the world of sport.
