🗣️ 'I remember watching the 1999 season review every single day before I used to go to school.' Newly crowned BTCC champion Tom Ingram has revealed that he was inspired to get into racing by the exploits of 1999 title winner Laurent Aiello ⬇️
Ingram, who clinched the title thanks to a double win and a fifth place in a tense finale at Brands Hatch on Sunday, became a fan of Aiello when he was a small child.
“I’ve wanted to win this championship since I was five years old – it’s all I’ve ever dreamt about doing,” said Ingram.“Kids would be playing PlayStation or playing football, and I’d be watching the Croft round of the British Touring Car Championship. “It’s a shame that it’s only my name on it, because every single person here deserves their name on it as well, because the work that’s gone in this year has been incomprehensible,” Ingram added.
“We’ve done it properly – I’ve not done it through firing people off, I’ve not done it by cheating, we’ve just done it by bloody hard graft and honesty and professionalism, and I can hold my head immensely high that we’ve done a bloody good job and we’ve done it with the most perfect values I could hope for.”
