We have excellent interaction with fleet owners, drivers and enthusiasts at every event, and our customers always tell us how happy they are with the experience, both on the track and on the road.
2025 is set to be a special year with Martin returning to the wheel of the #101, something that will no doubt be reflected in the extensive coverage we will receive on television, social media and in the press.”
