Following last week’s announcement that Halder Motorsport will run three cars in TCR Europe this season, Jack Young has now been revealed as the team’s third driver, partnering siblings Mike and Michelle Halder. The team will continue to race Honda Civic Type R cars.
Young is a member of the JAS Motorsport Driver Development Programme for the second successive year. After a full season in TCR Europe last year with the Brutal Fish Racing team, the 20-year-old from Northern Ireland finished third in the series’ Junior Trophy and tenth in the overall Drivers’ standings.
Young said: "I'm really excited; I expect it's going to be a more challenging year, which is something I'm really up for. Last year, we showed we had good pace and now this year the aim is to go for more consistency and get better results, and hopefully be in a position to challenge for the championship. I'm also excited to be working with Mike and Michelle Halder, my new team-mates. It's great to have good drivers to work with and to compare yourself to and get the best out of the car.”
