TCR UK

Area Motorsport have been involved in TCR UK since its introduction initially assisting Carl Swift with Data Analysis on his TCR UK Cupra. We then Campaigned Cupras in Endurance Racing for 2019,2020,2021 and 2022. In 2021 we entered TCR UK with a Cupra DSG at the hands of Bruce Winfield our 2020 Civic Cup Champion.

The aim for the first season was really to gauge ourselves in TCR UK and using a DSG Cupra kept costs to a minimum and whilst the car certainly wasn’t the most competitive against new generation sequential cars the team and driver put in some great performances. Towards the end of the season the team and Winfield achieved 3 race victories, Pole Position and ended up coming P2 in the championship by just 11 points.

In the off season Winfield would swap his DSG Cupra for a Sequential version and would also be joined by new to the team Jessica Hawkins and another of our Civic Cup drivers Jamie Tonks. As team mates they excelled taking multiple race victories throughout the season and with addition of Adam Shepherd in his I30 mid season Area Motorsport drivers took 3 x 1,2 finishes from round 4 onwards. Without some bad luck from tyre faliures in other races the championship could have been ours but it wasn’t to be. We were extremely proud of the achievements in 2022 cementing our place on the grid as one of the most successful teams in TCR UK.

2023 plans were somewhat up in the air as always over the winter season. What came together was nothing short of a Team with extremely quick pace and all drivers capable of challenging for the championship. Winfield and Shepherd remained with us for 2023, Alex Ley joined the team and a number of different drivers would enter single rounds.
