Fantastic to be back out on track for the first time in 2025! I tested at Snetterton for my first shakedown of my BRSCC Fiesta Junior race car following its winter rebuild. It was a hugely productive and enjoyable day, and I came away with lots of valuable data ahead of the start of the season. Huge thanks to my driver coach, Charles Rainford — working with Charles was an absolute pleasure. I also want to say thank you to Race Car Consultants for all their work preparing the car, which feels absolutely fantastic. Onwards and upwards!

I am delighted to announce that I have become an ambassador for SIM Motorsport, the UK’s leading race car simulation centre.

It was a privilege to be asked to be a guest speaker for the graduation class for the latest SIM Motorsport Race School students. I was joined by fellow guest speakers’ Super GT and Ruben Stanislaus. It was a real pleasure to share my insight on my first season racing cars. I also had an opportunity to compete against the graduates in the sim. Many congratulations and I wish all the students the best of luck in their future racing endeavours.

I had a great evening working with Richard John Neil as part of the VR Racing Club commentary team. It was a real pleasure to be part of the team and to watch and commentate on some great racing that this championship produces. Thank you to Rich Hayden and Richard John Neil for giving me this opportunity. I look forward to hopefully being involved in future races.

A fantastic day at Silverstone for the BRSCC’s Driven by Racing event. Thank you to Race Car Consultants for providing me with an opportunity to get some valuable track time ahead of next season. I spent some time working with my teammate Archie Davies — it’s always great when you can run close with another driver and have complete confidence in them. It was also great to see everyone from SIM Motorsport and to have some time in the simulator. Roll on 2025!
