GB4 CHAMP TAYLOR WANTS GB3
Inaugural GB4 champion Nikolas Taylor hopes to graduate to GB3 next season remaining with the Fortec Motorsports team.
The 17-year-old Malaysian-British driver sealed the junior single-seater championship with Fortec at the contest’s Donington Park finale 10 days ago. Taylor totalled nine wins across the season, five more than the next highest, having started the year with little racing experience.
When asked at Donington where he hoped to race next year, Taylor said: “Hopefully in GB3 with Fortec.
“The hard work that they [Fortec] do is amazing, every time I go into the factory it’s just like ‘on it’. And hopefully next year in GB3 it will be the same.”
Fortec boss Ollie Dutton told Motorsport News about the prospect: “We would love that, we’re going to get him in a car, see how he gets on. I know the family needs some sponsorship. Hopefully this [the GB4 title] will help them.
“I know that they’re working hard and I know that sponsors are interested. So if we can get him in a GB3 car I’m sure he’ll take to it as easily as he did this one [GB4]. And he’s a racer and he’s going to go on to do great things so we would love to have him with our team next year.”
