KARTING CHAMPION FINLAY LINES JOINS FEWKES SPORT MANAGEMENT

Fewkes Sport Management is delighted to announce that it is now representing Finlay Lines, with the aim of guiding the successful karting champion as he takes the next steps in what is already proving to be a fledgling career in motor racing.

Becoming the latest driver to join the athlete portfolio at FSM, Lines will work with the agency to continue developing both on and off the track as he looks to firstly graduate into car racing and then climb the motorsport ranks.

The talented 12-year-old – who is the son of former British Touring Car Championship racer turned Championship Promoter Stewart Lines – has established himself as a rising star on the UK karting scene over the past two years; with 2024 yielding unprecedented success.

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

Off the back of his trophy-ladened campaign, Lines most recently represented Team UK at the 2024 Rotax World Karting Finals in Sarno, Italy.

Now aligning himself with FSM, the second-generation racing driver is poised to embark on an exciting future with the guidance of company founder Will Fewkes and former FIA World Touring Car Champion and Performance Pathway Director, Rob Huff.

“I’m delighted that Finlay is joining FSM,” said his father, Stewart. “The motorsport CVs of both Will and Rob speak for themselves; you only have to see what they have achieved in global motorsport to understand that they’re the right people to handle his rise up the ranks.

“As a family we’re looking forward to working with them in achieving the same goal, which is Finlay becoming a professional racing driver.”

Fewkes continued: “We are delighted to welcome Finlay to FSM. He has been on our radar for some time and it’s clear to see that he has huge potential for the future.

“Both Rob and I have extensive experience in understanding what it takes for a driver to compete at the highest levels of motorsport and we can’t wait to help guide Finlay through the next steps in his career during the coming years.”

“I’m equally as excited to be able to work with Finlay,” added Huff. “For someone so young, he already boasts an immense amount of talent and it’s clear to see the calibre of driver that he is on the way to becoming.

“I’m proud that FSM has been trusted to work with such an exciting prospect and I’m looking forward to seeing what lies ahead.”
