So we finally did it. We won the inaugural Clio Cup GB series, with five wins along the way. This was a learning year for us, and we are still getting the best out of ourselves and the car. But overall, I think we learned quickly as a team and did what we needed to do to secure the championship at the last round at Brands Hatch in Kent.
I want to extend a heartfelt and profound thank you to my incredible team, Graves Motorsport, as well as to my friends and family who have stood by my side and supported me throughout this challenging journey. The road we traveled together was not without its obstacles and difficulties; there were moments of doubt and frustration that tested our resolve. Yet, through perseverance, teamwork, and unwavering support, we managed to overcome each hurdle that came our way.
The dedication and hard work of my team were instrumental in achieving our goals, and I am truly grateful for their commitment and passion. Additionally, the encouragement and love from my friends and family provided me with the strength to push through the tough times. Their belief in me kept my spirits high, even when the path seemed daunting. It is because of this collective effort and unwavering support that we were able to reach our destination in the end, and for that, I am eternally thankful.
I am filled with an exhilarating sense of anticipation as I look ahead to the year 2025. This upcoming season holds a special significance for us, as we will be defending our hard-earned title, a testament to our dedication, skill, and teamwork over the past years. The prospect of competing again in the championship ignites a fire within me, as I am eager to prove that our previous success was not merely a stroke of luck, but rather the result of relentless effort and strategic planning.
In addition to the domestic challenges we will face, we are also preparing to embark on an exciting journey beyond our borders. Our team will be venturing out to Europe, where we will participate in selected rounds of the prestigious Clio Cup Europe series. This opportunity is not just about competition; it is about testing our mettle against some of the best Clio racers from around the globe. The chance to race on renowned European circuits, which are often steeped in history and known for their unique challenges, adds an extra layer of excitement to our campaign.
Competing in Europe will allow us to gain invaluable experience and insights that can only be acquired by racing against the elite in the sport. We will be facing drivers who have honed their skills on these tracks, and this will undoubtedly push us to elevate our performance to new heights. The thrill of racing in front of passionate European crowds, who are known for their deep appreciation of motorsport, will be a motivating factor that drives us to excel.
As we prepare for this international endeavor, our focus will be on meticulous training, refining our strategies, and ensuring that our vehicle is in peak condition to withstand the rigors of competitive racing. We will analyze past performances, study our potential rivals, and engage in collaborative discussions to enhance our approach. Each round we participate in will serve as a stepping stone, helping us to gauge our progress and adapt our tactics accordingly.
In summary, 2025 promises to be a monumental year for us as we defend our title and embrace the challenge of competing in Europe. The combination of defending our championship at home and testing ourselves against the best in the Clio Cup Europe will not only be a thrilling experience but also an opportunity for growth and development as racers. I am ready to embrace every moment of this journey, knowing that it will shape our future in ways we can only begin to imagine.
I am thrilled to announce our new title sponsor for 2025, details will be shared soon.
Thank you all for your support, and join me in 2025 for more excitement!
