Alex Ley to race with Area Motorsport for 2023 TCR UK

2022 TCR UK’s most winning driver, Alex Ley will be back in 2023 for a full season campaign. Ley will stay at the wheel of his Daniel James Motorsport-run Hyundai i30 N as the team joins forces with Area Motorsport.

Despite missing the opening two races of the 2022 season, Ley went on to claim three race wins in his debut year on his way to finish sixth in the Drivers’ championship.

Daniel James Motorsport’s Principal Daniel Ley said: “The 2022 season surpassed our expectations and really put Alex on the map with his three wins in his debut season. We never expected to end the year with three victories and that’s a true testament to the hard work both Alex and the Daniel James Motorsport put in. In 2023 we are contesting all 15 rounds, joining forces with Area Motorsport, presenting Alex with an opportunity to grow as a driver.”

Area Motorsport Principal Rob Baker added: "Having worked with Alex and his team last year mainly with data, setup and driver coaching, we’re extremely pleased to have someone him with us for the full 2023 season. Alex proved last year his quality winning the most races and he will certainly be one to watch in 2023 as he pushes to be involved in the championship fight from the very start."
