Andrew McLarney

Andrew McLarney is a MotoGP reporter for GPBlog. A former karate black belt and two-time national champion by age 17, his early passion for combat sports evolved into a deep interest in UFC and eventually motorsport — with MotoGP becoming his primary focus.
He studied Animation & VFX at Falmouth University before building a career as a video game writer and reporter for outlets including GameRant and DualShockers. In addition to journalism, Andrew is an accomplished creative: he has written several acclaimed short stories in the science-fiction, adventure, and horror genres, and produces electronic music under the alias Anuma, amassing hundreds of thousands of streams across various platforms.
His writing is informed by a broad range of interests, including the rich history of motorsport, the diverse cultures encountered on the MotoGP calendar, and classical literature. He particularly admires the works of Dante Alighieri, Joseph Conrad, and Hunter S. Thompson.
