Excelr8 Motorsport has unveiled the livery which will adorn its two Hyundai i30 Fastback N cars driven by Tom Chilton and Tom Ingram in this year’s British Touring Car Championship.
The cars, unveiled at the Nottingham Hyundai dealership, will sport title-sponsorship from Vertu Motors brand Bristol Street Motors, with the parent group having over 200 locations across the country.
All four Excelr8 Motorsport Hyundai cars will feature backing from the Bristol Street Motors and Vansdirect brands, whilst the team will also be supported with cars for use by the drivers and vans for supplies.
“We are delighted to not only extend our relationship with Bristol Street Motors for the 2022 season, but to also expand it to a greater level than has been the case in recent years,” said Team Owner Justina Williams.
“The fact that we have been able to agree this new deal is a reflection of all the hard work that has gone into our BTCC programme, and it is fantastic that such an established brand can see the value that comes from competing in such a high-profile championship.
“At the same time, we’re also pleased that the strong partnership we have developed with Vansdirect will continue into the new season as it was something that was hugely successful last year, and it is equally pleasing that it too wants to be involved at a greater level.
“As ever, we look forward to working with the team at Bristol Street Motors and Vansdirect during the year ahead, and go into 2022 confident of a successful season on all levels.”
Robert Forrester, Chief Executive of Bristol Street Motors, added:
“We’re really looking forward to supporting Tom Ingram and Tom Chilton, who are both leading names in the sport, in addition to the other excellent drivers who are part of the EXCELR8 team, as they all make their presence felt this season.
“The upcoming calendar is set to be an incredibly exciting one and we’re all eagerly awaiting that first race at Donington Park.”
