Jordan Cane switches to Formula Renault Eurocup for 2018

Double British Formula 3 race winner Jordan Cane has announced he will be racing with Fortec in the Formula Renault Eurocup championship next season.

The 16 year old from West Sussex holds the record for being the youngest British single seater driver to win a race anywhere in the world at just 14 years old whilst racing in F1600 in the United States, where he scored seven race wins in 2015.

Fortec team manager Martin Young said:

“We are ecstatic to have Jordan join Team Fortec. We have been keeping a close eye on him since his impressive performance in America and we look forward to a strong competitive 2018 season”

And, the talented British racer Jordan himself explained:

“We had a lot of offers for next year, but I’m really happy to confirm that I will be racing for Fortec in 2018 in Renault Eurocup, the team did a great job in testing and have shown that we will be able to compete at the front.

“I have work to do, Fortec have put their faith in me to get results and for that I’m very grateful. It’s a tough series but with the people around me, I’m confident we will get results.”

Motorsport Radio was at the scene of Cane’s first British F3 victory at Snetterton earlier on this year:

The 2018 Formula Renault Eurocup season begins on April 15th at Paul Ricard.
