23 hours ago
Motorbase Performance has revealed the livery for the two Ford Focus STs that will be driven by Sam Osborne and Andy Neate during the 2021 BTCC season.
The pair will join forces under the Racing with Wera & Photon Group banner on one side of the Motorbase garage, with Jake Hill and Ollie Jackson on the other racing under the MB Motorsport name.
The reveal of the black livery on the Motorbase-entered cars comes ahead of the official season launch at Silverstone tomorrow (Thursday).
“The off-season has brought a huge number of changes for Motorbase Performance,” team owner Pete Osborne said. “The team has worked incredibly hard over the winter but now we cannot wait for the real work to begin! We are thrilled to be representing both Wera Tools and the Photon Group on track this season and everyone is excited to start the Racing with Wera & Photon Group chapter.”

Sam Osborne will line-up alongside Andy Neate in the two Motorbase Performance-entered Ford Focus STs for the 2021 BTCC season.
After confirmation that Ollie Jackson will partner Jake Hill in the second of the MB Motorsport Fords, Osborne – who was partner to Hill last season – will be paired up with Neate as he continues with the Ford team into a second season.
Osborne’s father Pete purchased Motorbase along with AmD boss Shaun Hollamby over the winter.
“I’m thrilled to be working with Motorbase Performance this year,” he said. “With this team, I can continue my progression in 2021. Last year I began to really settle into the series, so my aim for this season is to keep pushing myself as hard as I can and fight for the Jack Sears Trophy.
