Stratford racing driver Lucas Blantford lands seat in BRSCC Junior Ford Fiesta Championship

LUCAS Blantford’s racing career has taken the next step after it was announced the talented driver would be competing in the BRSCC Junior Ford Fiesta Championship for the next two years.

The 13-year-old from Stratford had initially planned to race in the Junior Saloon Car Championship for 2023, a series for 14- to 17-year-olds involving grids of up to 30 Citroen Saxos.

This would have been the entry level to the world of touring cars for the Stratford School pupil and progression to the BRSCC Junior Ford Fiesta Championship would have been the next logical step.
