1 month ago
Rick Parfitt Jr has become the first rookie driver confirmed on the 2021 BTCC grid after securing a deal to complete the EXCELR8 Trade Price Cars line-up.
Parfitt, the only driver to win both the GT3 and GT4 titles in the British GT Championship, will line up alongside Tom Ingram, Chris Smiley and Jack Butel at the wheel of a Hyundai i30 N Fastback for what will be his first taste of touring car racing.
The 46-year-old will be making his return to racing having missed the entire 2020 season in order to recover from major surgery for Crohn’s disease early last year.
