Motus One confirmed the programme of fielding three Honda Civic Type R cars in the 2021 TCR UK.
Following a successful testing programme at the end of last year, the team acquired a trio of Civic FK2 cars supported by official Honda specialists JAS Motorsport. The driver line-up will comprise team boss Will Powell, saloon racing regular Dave Scaramanga and newcomer Danny Krywyj, who’ll be embarking on his debut season.
TCR UK promoter Stewart Lines said: “I’m delighted to welcome Motus One, having been impressed by their fast rise in GT racing and notably running the official Brabham BT62 programme. Their three-car TCR UK entry represents another significant step forward for our series, as we continue to attract new teams and drivers to the grid and develop the Goodyear Touring Car Trophy as a whole.”
Will Powell, Motus One managing director and pro-driver said: “We’ve made no secret of our ambition to add touring cars to the team’s activities and the Goodyear Touring Car Trophy has made that viable for us in 2021. Our strong relationship with Goodyear - who I’ve raced for and we work closely with on our Brabham BT62 programme - along with the plans to promote and grow the TCR package in the UK, makes this a great fit for us. As always, we aim to win on the track but respect the calibre of teams we’re up against. It’ll be a year of learning and fighting for everything we can. I can’t wait to start the season!”
