MKH Racing return to the British GT Championship with two different but familiar faces

 

 

More Aston Martin Racing powered news has been confirmed for the British GT Championship this morning with another new Vantage GT4 entry, this time from the MKH Racing team.

Last season we welcomed the MKH Racing for their part-entry within the new for 2025 GT4 Endurance Cup element within the overall championship that saw former AMR factory Stuart Hall race alongside Peter Montague.

 

 

For their 2026 campaign, however, the team have welcomed in two ‘new’ young guns to compete within their AMR Vantage GT4 as two very familiar faces return to topflight GT racing within the UK.

Previously with Mark Warren and the Forsetti Motorsport team a couple of years ago before moving into the GT4 European Series last season with the Racing Spirit of Leman team, we welcome back Will Orton to the championship as he will race alongside Aston Martin F1 Brand Ambassador and former Beechdean AMR GT3 BGT entrant Jessica Hawkins.

 

 

“I’m absolutely thrilled to be returning to the British GT Championship in 2026 with MKH Racing, partnering with Jessica Hawkins in the Silver category,” said the former Mini Challenge runner-up. “Having competed in the Aston Martin during its inaugural season in 2024, I’m excited to be back behind the wheel and building on that experience.“

“I can’t wait to get started in British GT, it’s going to be great to be back in the paddock,” she said. “I’m very excited to be teaming up with MKH Racing and Will Orton –I think together we will be a very strong combination. Of course, our aim is to fight for the championship, and I think we have a strong package to do that. Thank you so much to my partners, Armand ELEMIS, for their continuous support, as well as the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team. Will and I are very keen to push hard for a solid, consistent season.

 

If all the AMR stars align ahead of the season opener from Silverstone in April, that brings the AMR powered headcount to seven cars (six Vantage GT4 entries) as MKH Racing join the likes of GBR Stratton Motorsport, Full Send Racing Beechdean AMR (GT3) and Townsend powered by Fox Motorsport onto the grid.
