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. Bishop introduced a series of celebrity columnists to ''F1 Racing'', including Murray Walker, Damon Hill, Jenson Button and many more. in 2014 Bishop co-authored with the 1972 and 1974 Formula One World Champion Emerson Fittipaldi the autobiographical work 'Emmo: a Racer's Soul', published by Haymarket Media Group. Bishop is known in Formula One circles as 'The Bish' and is known for his larger-than-life wardrobe that includes a seemingly limitless number of very garish shirts. Bishop's journalism was published in ''F1 Racing'' and Autosport.com, for which he used to write a famously trenchant fortnightly column entitled 'From the Pulpit'. On 26 September 2007 it was announced that Bishop would leave Haymarket, publisher of ''F1 Racing'' and ''Autosport'', to become Group Head of Communications and Public Relations for McLaren, effective January 2008.〔 Bishop's father is the US-born concert pianist, Stephen Kovacevich.
