Wilson wins £50,000, full membership of the BRDC, a test in a McLaren Formula 1 Car and a GP2 test. Stefan, who is the younger brother of Champ Car and ex-Formula One driver Justin Wilson, was overjoyed to receive the award: "It was a shock, I thought I was the underdog, so I was thrilled when I heard my name announced,” he said. “I could barely see to begin with when I was walking through the confetti! It feels amazing. My brother Justin and my Dad were up before me, they were screaming and I was still in shock! It's incredible to see my name on the side of a McLaren Formula 1 car as well."

"My first year in single-seaters has been great. It's been fantastic being a part of the rejuvenation of Formula Palmer Audi, and the standard of driving has been very high. I've learned a lot, and it's great to be the first FPA driver to win this award. I've really enjoyed driving in the series, and it's led me to winning this award."

Stefan finished second in this year's Formula Palmer Audi championship. He joins previous McLaren Autosport BRDC winners including David Coulthard, Jenson Button and Anthony Davidson: "It's an amazing feeling to think that I'm on the same list as so many other great drivers," said Stefan. "I can't wait to drive a Formula 1 car, this is a massive opportunity. Now I'm going to see what doors this prize opens, before we make any decisions on what happens next year."
