About

[edit]
This user attends or attended the University of Bath.
This editor is a Veteran Editor III and is entitled to display this Silver Editor Star.
This user lives in Devon.
This user is a Chartered Engineer (CEng) registered with the Engineering Council.

The MB2437 account was created on 5 November 2022 to work on WP:MOTORSPORT articles while I was studying for my MEng. Since then, I have made over 25,000 edits across hundreds of related articles, with a focus on Formula One and kart racing; you may call it procrastination, but I prefer "creative time-wasting".

I used to race myself—if you Google P20 merchant, I'm sure you'll find me somewhere. "P45" would be more accurate if my shithousery ever blessed the live broadcasts. Forever in it to bin it. "MB" is not an initialism of Mercedes-Benz, nor does it stand for Martin Brundle; if doxxing is your forte, you may be devastated upon the discovery it is also not my initials.

Beyond the online waffle, I am a Chartered Aerospace Engineer. An optimist could say I am saving the world by writing articles instead of designing cruise missiles with a sprinkle of moral ambiguity. Member of WikiProject Formula One, Motorsport, the Guild of Copy Editors, and Women in Red.
