<p>Jockey AP McCoy has been crowned BBC Sports Personality of the Year.</p>
<p>The 36-year-old bookmakers&#8217; favourite finally won the Grand National this year on Don&#8217;t Push It.</p>
<p>Holding the famous Personality of the Year trophy, he said: &#8220;This is an unbelievable feeling to be standing in front of so many amazing sports people.&#8221;</p>
<p>The runner-up was darts player Phil Taylor, and athlete Jessica Ennis claimed third place.</p>
<p>McCoy, from Northern Ireland, has been champion jockey a record 15 times in a row and has ridden more than 3,000 winners.</p>
<p>His National win this year was the 15th time of trying.</p>
<p>He said to a packed house at the LG Arena in Birmingham: &#8220;To win this award is very surreal and obviously it could not have been achieved without the help of so many people.</p>
<p>&#8220;I have so many people to thank. I work in a wonderful sport, they probably spent most of the night voting for me.&#8221;</p>
<p>He thanked his trainer Jonjo O&#8217;Neill, his wife and his family.</p>
<p>Speaking of his daughter, he said: &#8220;I know she&#8217;ll be watching at home and I just want to say how amazing she is.&#8221;</p>
