Last year was pretty tough and we didn\u2019t get to show our true pace.

I\u2019ve only had a couple of days behind the wheel and I cannot wait to get back racing. A huge thank you to the team, my sponsors and partners.\u201d<\/em>\n  <\/p>\n<p>Chris Richards, Team Manager: <em>\u201cWe are really looking forward to the new Ginetta GT5 Challenge season and hopefully we can replicate the amazing season we had in 2019.
