“We’re delighted to complete our line-up for the 2023 season,” he said. “Will has been working hard behind the scenes at One Motorsport and has become an integral part of the team in recent months. With Josh and Aiden alongside him, I’m sure he will dedicate himself to deliver his best on track this year.”
