Yesterday at the Autosport International show in Birmingham we were happy to announce the winners of Grand Prix Shootout 2009. Because the standard was so high, we decided to announce two winners instead of one. They are as follows:

Tio Ellinas
Tio is 17 and from Cyprus. He has won eight national and one world karting titles. Rob Wilson, our main coach and judge, was so impressed with Tio's pace that he immediately got into our second Abarth 500 to check why there was such a difference between the cars!

Dani Domit
Dani is 21 and from Mexico. He impressed Rob Wilson despite being a novice! He only decided to become a racing driver in 2009 and did two Skip Barber school courses. His feedback from the school gave him the confidence to take part in Grand Prix Shootout which turned out to be a good idea!

Both drivers will be racing in top single seater series during 2010.
