How the Autosport Young Driver Award winner gets chosen

Autosport Awards
The Autosport Awards are a series of awards presented by motor racing magazine Autosport to drivers that have achieved significant milestones each season. Some of the presentations are selected by the general public via a reader's poll.
Autosport's search for the best young British driving talent has been pretty successful over the past 30 years.
David Coulthard became the inaugural Award winner in 1989, with an on-track shootout between a selected group of finalists arriving the following year. Since then, winners have included 2009 Formula 1 world champion Jenson Button, three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dario Franchitti, 2014 World Endurance champion Anthony Davidson, and current F1 stars George Russell and Lando Norris.
