| Lewis is the reigning Pirelli Maranello Ferrari
Challenge Champion, having dominated the 2003 series by
starting from pole in all 14 races and winning 10 of them.
His sporting career started on water, and at 9-years old
won the Scottish Amateur Waterskiing Championship. At 14
he stopped waterskiing to pursue a career in driving –
winning the 1998 Scottish Junior Kart Championship. He moved
to cars in 1999, winning the Formula 600 series (in a car
prepared by James Pickford’s father, Keith) by scoring
13 podiums in 15 races. Two years in Formula Fords followed
in 2000 and 2001, while 2002 was mainly spent finding the
funds to contest the 2003 Pirelli Maranello Ferrari Challenge,
where he drove a 420bhp Ferrari 360 and tested a Ferrari
GT at the end of the year. Lewis is sponsored by The Cobra
Group, Europcar, Marsh and The Scottish Motor Option Group. |
