Sport77 and J.A.S Motorsport are pleased to announce a new association that will increase support and access to Honda racing products in the United Kingdom from the 2024 season onwards.
Sport77 have a multi-car assault planned for the 2024 TCR UK Touring Car Championship, with the full driver line-up to be confirmed in due course.
This fresh TCR campaign will benefit from the technical support of J.A.S staff, who are already collaborating with the Sport77 team, led by Chief Technical Officer, Sean Hurley
Sport77 will also become an agent for J.A.S Honda in the UK, supporting the importation of racing products, including cars and parts, with stock held onshore.
Opportunities for current and prospective customers to test and experience J.A.S Honda racing cars will be made available throughout 2024, at circuits in Italy and the UK.
Will Powell, Chief Executive Officer, Sport77 said:
“I’m grateful to J.A.S Motorsport for their belief and endorsement of Sport77 as a new team that’s staffed by established experts in British motorsport. We can’t wait to showcase the Civic Type R TCR and NSX GT3 products to the best of our ability. Our experience of the cars and factory so far has been first-class, and we look forward to representing these values to our customer drivers and partners.”
Mads Fischer, Chief Operating Officer, J.A.S Motorsport said:
“We are pleased to appoint Sport77 as our UK agent. We have similar associations in other countries and have realised the potential of combining the expertise we hold at JAS Motorsport with a partner who truly understands their local market. The UK has one of the world’s most important and thriving racing scenes and it was in TCR UK that we chose to give the latest Honda Civic Type R TCR its global debut last year. We hope to see many more JAS cars in the UK and this association with Sport77 should help us achieve this.”
TCR UK Championship Promoter Stewart Lines added his thoughts on the new announcement.
“It’s great to see Honda has chosen TCR UK and Sport77 as its customer racing outlet. The Honda Touring Car has always been an iconic race car and it will be great to see them on circuit in 2024.”
