Loake joins a star-studded list of former winners that includes 2009 FIA Formula 1® world champion Jenson Button, three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dario Franchitti, and several Le Mans 24 Hours class winners including Aston Martin’s Darren Turner. The roll of honour also includes current F1® drivers, George Russell and Lando Norris, as well as last year’s winner Luke Browning, who was crowned the champion of the prestigious Macau Grand Prix (for F3 cars) last month.
