Power Maxed Racing has confirmed that youngster Harry Bloor will race one of its Hyundai i30 N TCR cars in TCR UK in 2025 as part of the Junior Touring Car Programme.
Bloor, 17, will also continue to race in Rotax karting events in between hi participation in TCR UK events.
Bloor only began racing in 2022, and in 2023 entered the British Karting Championship, where he was third overall.
Last year, Bloor continued in the same class and was victorious on multiple occasions.
Bloor is thus set to make his car racing début when he joins TCR UK this year for his third year of racing.
“I’m looking forward to the challenge of competing in the TCR UK Touring Car Championship, where I get to drive the amazing Hyundai i30 N TCR,” said Bloor.
“The car was great to drive during the recent test, and it was clear to me this is where I want to race as the next step in my motorsport career.
“I’m incredibly grateful to my mechanic, Carl Bagley, and Precision Racing Team Leader, Jake Coward, for all of their support during my karting and moving into touring cars.
“Joining PMR gives me a really good chance to hit the ground running in my first year of car racing with such an experienced team.”
Power Maxed Racing Team Principal Martin Broadhurst believes the team has a good record of nurturing young talent in touring car racing.
“It’s great to start the New Year with some positive news and we are delighted to welcome Harry into the TCR UK Junior program,” added Broadhurst. “It will be a busy few weeks ahead as we embark on the journey with Harry.
“We have a strong background in nurturing young drivers which I think shows with our record of being four-times [BTCC] Jack Sears champions, making PMR the most successful team in BTCC history for this category.
“It will be exciting to get started with preparations as we look to the first round at Donington Park in March.”
