Will Bratt, third placed finisher in this year’s Formula Renault UK
Championship, joined the cream of national motor racing talent in London on
Saturday evening, 17th November, as part of the British Touring Car
Championship’s 2007 ‘TOCA Night of Champions’.
The 19-year-old BRDC Rising Star, who is set to graduate up the
single-seater ladder in 2008, received his third-placed trophy from the Chief
Executive of the British Automobile Racing Club (BARC), Dennis Carter, at the
star-studded ceremony, a suitably prestigious end to what has been an
outstanding season for the Banbury racer.
Formula Renault UK, of course, is a key support category on the BTCC
package and this year Will performed brilliantly in the ultra-competitive series
at the wheel of his Apotex Scorpio Motorsport-run car to secure four race
victories, three other podiums and three pole positions on his way to third
place in the championship.
Joined at Park Lane’s InterContinental Hotel on Saturday evening by
his parents Rowland and Diane, team boss of the Apotex Scorpio Motorsport squad
Jon Pettitt and Apotex UK’s Colin Darroch, Will had a thoroughly enjoyable
time.
He commented: “It was a really good evening, everybody had a great time and
we’re delighted Jon and Colin were able to join us. We’re all very proud of our
achievements this year in Formula Renault UK but now we’re looking ahead to 2008
as we start to make plans for our next step on the single-seater ladder. ”
