WHAT WE OFFER
Represented by former Corvette factory driver, Oliver Gavin, we are realistic, pragmatic and we deliver value – Three straightforward statements that underline our philosophy when it comes to negotiating and co-operating with our existing and future financial partners.
We provide the entry to an arena that’s exhilarating, exciting, attention-grabbing, and highly promotable for our partners, but fundamentally it’s about business and delivering the best return on our partners’ investment with us.
FLEXIBILITY
Flexibility is another of our core values. We understand that our partners have different objectives to fulfil, and so we individually tune involvement with Ben and the team according to what will work best to achieve our partner’s goals, and return the maximum value from every pound, euro or dollar spent.
We’re not alone in accomplishing this…With their years of experience, the championship organisers provide us with first-rate infrastructure and resources to fulfil our and our partner’s needs, from highly visible TV race exposure, through a well-oiled and highly-effective Championship PR and promotion, to collaborations with race-day hospitality.
A TIERED APPROACH TO INVESTMENT
From our experience of partner requirements, allied to their required level of financial involvement, we have developed a tiered approach to financial investment in Ben and the team. This is purely the starting line. We then negotiate individually with all partners to fine tune rights and involvement to suit specific requirements.
We look forward to talking with you…

THE JOURNEY
Ben Tuck is the key to unlocking the benefits of a partnership.
After a meteoric rise through the ranks, including RSF MSA Young Driver of the Year 2015 and debut wins in GT4 and Prototypes, it was 2018 when Ben Tucks success in the British GT Championship unlocked the path to what has become an impressive journey in the high echelon of international GT and endurance motor racing.
A sensational 2018 season ended with a thrilling finale and a final race duel for the title, which prompted BMW’s global Motorsport division to offer an invitation to the prestigious BMW Junior Team shoot-out, propelling him into the international racing arena in 2019, beginning his hugely successful partnerships with the elite BMW M customer racing team, Walkenhorst Motorsport.

After several seasons of success including GT4 and GT3 wins across Europe including the iconic Nurburgring Nordschleife, for 2023 Ben switched to another iconic brand, a watchword for luxury and performance, none other than Aston Martin. Racing an Aston Martin Vantage GTE with GT experts, TF Sport in the prestigious European Le Mans Series, Ben established himself as one of the fastest drivers on the European stage, reaching the podium in just his second race.

Maintaining the partnership, Ben continued on to the Asian Le Mans Series with the squad, taking fastest lap at the opening round at Sepang, Malaysia and a podium in the final round in Abu Dhabi. In 2024, Ben has embarked on a journey with new partners in Ferrari, for GT World Challenge and European Le Mans Series and also with Ford for the biggest race of them all – 24hrs of Le Mans itself.
A bursting trophy cabinet is emphatic proof of Ben’s skill and stature, as are coveted personal endorsements by the British Racing Drivers’ Club – motorsport’s most exclusive club – through his BRDC ‘Rising Star’ and ‘SuperStar’ awards in 2020, 2021 and 2022.
I have known Ben since 2019 when he first joined Team Walkenhorst at the VLN. He showed an outstanding performance right from the start at the hardest and most challenging circuit in the world, the Nürburgring Nordschleife. In 2020 I had the pleasure to work with Ben in the DTM Trophy, and he won his first race at Spa in one of the strongest GT4 Championships in the world and finished 3rd in the championship. Ben is not only lightning fast, he always stays cool, focused and concentrated, has a great technical knowledge and he is working really well with data and video analysis. Besides this great racer is a well-educated, happy and friendly person…the perfect racing driver package.
