what i do...
It is a pleasure to tell you that I have joined the BBC to cover Formula One, for what is sure to be another thrilling season.
For those of you who don't know me, I have covered lots of sports and major news stories in my years of journalism. From Formula One to Horse Racing, Tennis to Super Bikes and even Sports News to the Six O'clock news - I am a journalist who has moved off the pages and on to the television. I have worked for ITV, Sky Sports and Sky Sports News. One crazy scheme even saw me getting my International co-driving licence and competing in a round of the World Rally Championship!
For more information please take a trip round my website.

EVERYTHING IS NEW!
posted by Lee McKenzie on 10/03/2010
New drivers, new teams and new season; it really is a new era for Formula One. Whilst the new teams being a mixture of sentimentality, showbiz and slight concern, the new drivers bring a mixture of pound signs and promise! Some of you will only know me from F1 and might not realise that I have been working in many series of motorsport for the last 6 years. In fact I still try to get to as much as I can throughout the year. It gives me a chance to catch and glimpse and get to know the F1 drivers of the future. This year there are a flood of new faces in paddock and I am proud to say I have worked with them ALL before. So here are my thoughts about how they will fare. Read more...
Minus 14, Polar Bears and Tigers...in Scotland!
posted by Lee McKenzie on 22/02/2010
Tigers, Polar bears and temperatures as low as minus 14 all contributed to an absolutely amazing few days filming in the north of Scotland last week. I absolutely love presenting on BBC Scotland’s outdoor country show Landward – it is very rewarding and the variety of stories covered means there is always something for everyone in the programme. After my horse power section last year, in the next series I will be presenting from the Highland Wildlife Park near Aviemore where I get up close, worryingly close, to Amur tigers and Mercedes the Polar bear!

2010 STARTS WITH A BANG - AND A CRASH!
posted by Lee McKenzie on 05/02/2010
I cannot believe I have not updated this for so long! Very sorry but trust me I have been busy – kart races against some of the best drivers in the world, the BBC and F1 launches and some amusing photo shoots and other random events that seem to become a “normal” part of my job. Thankfully now though F1 is back, well testing at least and I cannot remember such a buzz surrounding an F1 test! Read more...
