Should be Jamun racing, they run Mygales and have been very successful over the years.

I saw him at Combe at the end of last year. He started from the back and made up positions nicely, and it was good seeing that helmet again. Josef Newgarden, now of GP3, was very very impressive though, and backed by Bryan Herta and Jeremy Shaw's Team USA racing scholarship.
Difficult to say whether either of them will 'make it', though, all racing's a learning process. I've always found Formula Ford pretty good to watch on its own merits though, unlike most other junior formulae.

I don't think Josh has been running Formula Ford for 2 years ?

Saw him at Brands hatch during the DTM round there, he pulled off some good overtaking to fight from 4th to 2nd. He pulled out what I thought was the best overtake of the day to retake 2nd place after losing the position after a failed move for 1st. At the end of the straight he faked to the outside, the guy in front moved to cover and he went up the inside at paddock hill, considering the nature of that corner it was very well judged.
I'd not seen the formula fords before, I got the impression that it's very much a learner series so probably way too early to judge him.

Given that he's getting an above average amount of attention because of his name, I think he's doing a fairly good job. In the Ginettas he was doing well, even though he'd not done karting like the others had.
I'm just enjoying seeing the London Rowing Club colours out there once again.

Josh did do a bit of karting with Club100 for a year or two I am pretty sure.

Wouldn't the above average attention mean he's being talked about more than the results would normally suggest?

Saw him pull off a great win at Silverstone under immense pressure from 3-4 other squabbling cars.

Damon raced in Formula Ford when it was a much stronger series and had much better results, even if we only take their first year, than Josh had.

Anyone following Josh's career might want to watch the documentary on Sky Sports this week. See link for broadcast times.

Big decision @joshhillracing to stop motorsport. "I do not want to compete unless I am 100% devoted"

I've not seen him race, just heard the odd comment from his dad. Be dream if he made it. THREE generations! If he won the F1 tile that would be amazing. I hope he does! Must check him out.

The decision probably took a lot of guts. Good luck to him.
