Hello Everyone,
I hope you are enjoying your week so far out in the lovely sunshine and enjoying our Health and Wellbeing learning opportunities.
It’s Wednesday so that means another Health Hero is here to enlighten you into their world of sportsmanship, please click the sway below to find out who our Special Guest is today.
As David said in his video, he started off his interest in motor sports from a very young age in a small town in the South West of Scotland. From many years of hard work and perseverance he went on to compete in 15 seasons of Formula One between 1994 and 2008, taking 13 Grand Prix victories and 62 podium finishes,.
I would like to personally thank David Coulthard for replying and taking the time to create this truly inspirational video for our very own Methlick School pupils and community.
What wonderful advice from David Coulthard.
I am old enough to have watched most, if not all, of David’s F1 races, Niall is very into F1 motor racing 🏎
One thing Niall and I would like to achieve would be to attend and watch a F1 race live🏁
That was amazing and I loved seeing David talking to us, I love F1 and want to watch a grand prix one day.
It was brilliant, glad you liked it Jacob. Maybe one day you will get to see a live Grand Prix (Can you take Mr and Mrs Webster too?)
I am glad you liked it Jacob, I’ve been waiting and waiting for this video to go live it’s been so exciting.
WOW! We loved hearing from David Coulthard! Such good advice that hard work helps you achieve your goals and succeed no matter where you are from. Thank you David and thank you Miss Deans!

He gave great advice,liked listening to him.😊
THanks boys, lots of great advice in there wasn’t there, glad you enjoyed 🙂
Hi Miss Deans. I have never herd of until now. I looked up about him and found out that he has won 13 races in Formula 1 and he has driven for McLaren and for Red Bull.
Well Done for doing some research Greig, glad you enjoyed watching 🙂
Wow!! Amazing hero with great advice.
Thank you both for watching it was a great watch 🙂
Thanks David!! We enjoyed that so much. My grandad works in motorsports and my dad use to race go-karts for Scotland. He was lucky enough to win one of the old trophy’s David won to become Scottish champion.
What a great link your family has with racing! I hope you share this post for all your family to see 🙂
I know my grandad was very proud of my dad winning such a big event. My dad often tells me about all the other f1 stars and racing drivers he raced with when he was younger when we watch them on tv.
I look forward to chatting more about this when we’re back at school, Sienna and Sol!
That’s so interesting, Sol and Sienna – and well done to your dad for winning one of David’s trophies! I enjoyed listening to David’s message very much – lots of sound advice there to anyone with ambition and a goal to pursue. Coincidentally, my brother, who also works in transport/haulage, is friends with David’s brother. It’s a small world. 🙂
That is really interesting, great to hear the whole family enjoyed, his video was very inspiring!
Thank you so much for this, Murdo loved it especially because of his obsession for F1 and all things car related!!!
Thank you very much for the kind comments, I am glad Murdo enjoyed this video. I’ve had this video for a wee while now and I am so excited it’s finally out for all to see!
Hi Murdo, I thought of you straight away when I found out that David Coulthard was going to be one of our Health Heroes. I am so pleased that you loved that. He was inspiring!
That was brilliant Miss Dean’s, I’ve been a supporter of David Coulthard for a long time. Ewan and I loved when he was racing. I really liked what he was saying. Thank you
Wow! Loved listening to him. My dad is a big formula 1 fan so he liked it too. Thanks David and Miss Dean’s too.
That’s great to hear I am glad you both enjoyed it 🙂
This was so interesting and inspiring to watch, I really liked how he described what his granny used to say to him and what it meant for him. I had to do some research too to know more about him.
Thank you for your kind comments Miss Maturana 🙂
Thank you for your advice to work hard David. I have been to a Grand Prix when I lived in Singapore. It was so fun and there was a crash right in front of where I was sitting! 😄
