Sims Signs with Mucke Motorsport

Alexander Sims, who recently won the McLaren Autosport BRDC Award, has signed with Mucke Motorsport to contest the 2009 F3 Euro Series alongside Marco Wittmann.

Sims has created a name for himself in the karting ranks here in North America by winning the prestigious Stars of Karting Race of Americas in 2006; driving a PSL/CRG/Maxter entry in the ICA class. Sims drove to an impressive 5.673 second victory over Canada's Lorenzo Mandarino on a wet Oklahoma track.

The 20-year-old British driver finished 2nd overall in the 2008 Formula Renault 2.0 UK championship, claiming 2 wins and 12 podiums driving for Manor Competition. Sims clearly has talent and will likely be a championship contender during his F3 Euro Series campaign in 2009.
