Robert Jones
News editor
After graduating with a sports journalism degree, Robert joined Crash.net to lead the WorldSBK coverage in 2021, while also providing MotoGP coverage. Fulfilling that role for over three years, Robert was able to put his knowledge about all things racing to the test.
In August 2024, Robert then transitioned to Visordown to continue covering motorsport alongside news from the wider two-wheeled world.
A keen rider himself, Robert always had a passion for riding bikes and after beginning his journey into the two-wheeler world in 2019, things only grew from there.
