Regarded by many as being a star of the future, Gilles Magnus has already enjoyed a meteoric rise up the motorsport ranks and the 24-year-old is showing no signs of slowing down.

In 2023, the Belgian racing driver claimed a top-three finish in the Gold Cup of the GT World Challenge Europe as factory driver for Audi Sport.

Having excelled in single-seaters against some of Formula 1’s hottest names, Magnus originally burst onto German car manufacturer’s radar by immediately building an impressive presence in TCR Europe, WTCR and the FIA World Touring Car Cup.

Switching from the top step of the podium on the world stage in touring cars and into a full-time factory sports car role for 2023, Magnus went on to claim one win, seven podiums and four pole positions in the series.

The 2024 season has already seen Magnus get off to a flying start having won the Dubai 24 Hour race, whilst also finishing runner-up in the Asian Le Mans Series.

Held in high esteem as one of the most gifted GT drivers at present – Sandy Mitchell is fast establishing himself as a global star of endurance racing. Not only is Sandy a factory Lamborghini driver, but also a former British GT Championship winner.  

After clinching multiple titles in karting and a successful campaign in single-seaters, the Scotsman burst onto GT scene in 2016, where he instantly made his mark by becoming the youngest British GT pole sitter and race winner in GT4.

From that moment onwards, Mitchell was one to watch as he firstly claimed a number of standout results in the Blancpain GT Endurance Series, before starring in the coveted Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America Championship in 2019 – coming close to a brace of titles.  

The following year Mitchell returned to British GT and duly swept aside the opposition as he teamed up with Barwell Motorsport. Claiming the overall title in the series, the Forfar-born racer underlined his dominance by tallying a class victory at the prestigious 24 Hours of Spa event. 

Mitchell’s devastating speed and consistency has since seen him finish no lower than fourth in British GT with Barwell. Lamborghini has also expanded his racing programme to become a front-running fixture in the prestigious GT World Challenge Europe Powered by AWS and the GTD Pro Class of IMSA.
 

After displaying plenty of talent in karting, BRDC Rising Star McKenzy Cresswell rose to prominence in 2021 as he produced a superlative debut campaign in the British F4 Championship; finishing third overall with six wins and a further five podiums. 

Graduating to the GB3 Championship the following year, the 19 year-old enjoyed an impressive run in his maiden season before making the switch to Elite Motorsport in 2023. Whilst also making his debut in the FIA Formula 3 Championship.

Over a two-year period, Cresswell established himself as credible contender in the UK’s premier open-wheel category by fighting towards the front of an ultra-competitive field on a regular basis – claiming a total of three wins and 13 more podium finishes.  

Most recently, Cresswell has dipped his toe in the water of endurance racing with Elite Motorsport in a McLaren Artura GT4 – dominating and ultimately winning the opening three races of the 2025 GT4 Winter Series. 

One of the undoubted rising stars of British motorsport, Pearson is already established as a leading light of the British Touring Car Championship and possesses all the makings of being a champion of the future.  

Starting his career in karting, the Scotsman has since soared up the racing ladder in recent years with stints in the Junior Saloon Car Championship, Michelin Clio Cup Series – where he claimed title glory in 2019 – and MINI CHALLENGE JCW all aiding his progression.

Making the eagerly-anticipated step up to the BTCC in 2022 with EXCELR8 Motorsport, Pearson enjoyed a stellar rookie campaign before returning the following year and becoming a race-winner at Brands Hatch.  

For 2025 he embarks on an exciting new challenge in the UK’s premier motorsport series as he links up with the manufacturer-backed TOYOTA GAZOO Racing UK, driving a Toyota Corolla GR Sport machine.  

Arguably one of the most exciting prospects to emerge from British karting at present, Finlay Lines is a second-generation talent embarking on a career in the world of motorsport.  

Clinching both the IAME E Plate and Rotax 0 Plate titles in 2024, the Synergy Factory Team driver was also crowned vice-champion in the IAME British Waterswift Championship and Wera Tools British Kart Championship Rotax MiniMax 950 Class.

Having competed for Team UK in the Rotax World Finals, Finlay now aligns with Fewkes Sport Management to begin preparations for his transition into car racing whilst continuing with a fulltime kart programme in 2025. 

Labelled as one of the standout talents in national motorsport at present, Mikey Doble accumulated an impressive tally of 12 victories, and a further 10 podiums en route to Ginetta GT5 Challenge and BMW Compact Cup title victories in 2022.  

With Doble’s sights firmly set on competing in the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship, this ambition was achieved when FSM negotiated his move to Carstore Power Maxed Racing for the 2023 season.

Doble went on to produce a stellar performance during the opening weekend of Britain’s premier racing series, becoming one of the very few drivers to claim an independents’ victory on his debut. This feat further highlights his potential for the future under FSM’s guidance.
