Peter LyonBilingual Australian motor journalist and author Peter Lyon has been writing about new car releases and car culture from Japan since 1988. His articles have been published in Auto Express, Car and Driver, Autocar, Auto Bild, Top Gear, Quattroruote, Forbes, Forbes Japan, GQ Japan, The Sydney Morning Herald, Newsweek Japan, and The Herald Sun. He co-hosts the English language TV show Samurai Wheels on Japan’s NHK network with ex-F1 racer Ukyo Katayama and was commissioned by JAF to write a book in Japanese on the local car industry in 2014. Lyon co-ordinated Jeremy Clarkson’s BBC ‘Motorworld’ special in 1994 and the ‘Race Across Japan’ Top Gear show in 2008. He has raced cars since 2001, placing 4th in class in the 2010 Nurburgring 24-hour race. He was World Car Awards’ co-chairman from 2010-2020, and is a judge for the Best Cars of the Year and Japan Car of the Year. Brian Long Born in Coventry, the heart of Britain's motor industry, Brian comes from a family with a proud heritage in the automotive and aviation fields. He trained as a mechanical engineer, and worked for a time at his father's garage. Brian became heavily involved in the classic car scene at 19, and says he turned to writing by accident. He now writes full-time and, since 1990, when his first book was released, he has had over 80 titles published. Brian and his wife, Miho, have two children, Louis and Sophie-Mercedes. They currently live in Chiba, close to Tokyo, where they can enjoy life with their Dobermann and a Thoroughbred racehorse, now retired from the tracks.
