Ash Named at 34 in the Motorsport News Fast 50 |
|
From: Nuneaton Age : 14
You didn't know: He only took up competitive karting in March 2007.
In 2008 he: raced in MiniMax in Stars and Super One
In 2009 he : will move into Junior Rotax with P1 Racing
Reason he is on the list : Hand's previous results may not amount to a great deal compared to the other karters on this list, but his relative lack of experience makes it impressive. Whereas most of the front runners in MiniMax this season had as much as five or six years of karting experience, Hand was racing his first full season after his novice year in 2007

P1 Racing boss Richard Amos says "I see how much potential he has, especially given the short period of time for which he has been racing. The way he is performing is extremely impressive. At Genk he could have finished on the podium had he not been taken out [by a rival] on the Saturday, then on the Sunday he came from 23rd to finish 7th. At the moment all he's lacking is experience, which we can build on over the winter. I think we can win the title together."
