Thank you everyone for your entries to the ‘Name for our New Ford Focus’ competition. We had some fantastic suggestions, here are all the names we had submitted:
| Suggestion | Submitted by |
|---|---|
| Freida | Poppy McSeveney |
| Rory | Caitlin Devlin |
| Florence | Caroline Gillert |
| Ruby | Darren Gibbins |
| Phoebe | Meg Lewis |
| Faith | Tracy Willsher |
| Rosie | Riley Turner |
| Roger | Daniella Shytaj |
| Scarlet | Lisa Warriner |
| Fernando | Morgan Jones |
| Rufus | Sarah McLaughlin |
| Felicia | Emily J |
It was really hard to choose a winner from the entries but one stood out to our Northampton based driving instructor Chris Barker. Chris is a big F1 fan and even named one of his children Jenson after Jenson Button. It was therefore only fitting that the car be named after the double world champion Fernando Alonso.
Congratulations go to Morgan Jones for her entry of ‘Fernando the Focus’’ who wins the FREE 1.5 Hour Driving Lesson. Apologies to those that didn’t win this time around but be sure to subscribe to our news updates on our webpage to find out about future competitions, hints and tips.
Now we’re not suggesting that you drive as fast or aggressive as an F1 driver, but can you think of any skills, abilities or qualities that an F1 driver uses that relate to being a good driver on the public roads?
