Matt Bishop, who was born in London in 1962, is a journalist and former Group Director of Media, Content and Communications for McLaren, which Formula One team he joined in January 2008, having been an automotive journalist and editor since 1991, specialising in Formula One since 1996.

He works closely with the current two McLaren drivers, 2005 and 2006 Formula One World Champion Fernando Alonso, and 2015 GP2 Series Champion Stoffel Vandoorne, as well as 2009 Formula One World Champion Jenson Button, who remains contracted to the McLaren team albeit now in an ambassadorial role.

Bishop also works closely with McLaren Technology Group Executive Director Zak Brown, as well as the team's Racing Director and Chief Operating Officer, Eric Boullier and Jonathan Neale. Bishop used to work closely with the 2008 Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton, before Hamilton left McLaren to join Mercedes-Benz at the end of the 2012 Formula One season.

Previously, Bishop had been Editor in Chief of the Formula One magazine F1 Racing.

He took on the editorship of F1 Racing in December 1996 and left it in December 2007, by which time F1 Racing had become the world's best-selling grand prix magazine, according to its own strap-line which appears on its front cover every month.
