TOCA Support Series

Finesse Motorsport was formed in November 2008 by Neil Giddings, the team entered the Ginetta Junior Championship in 2009 to run a car for Neil's son Jake Giddings.

The team entered the Ginetta G50 Cup starting with the Snetterton round of the 2010 season with Aaron Williamson.[1] When the championship became the Ginetta GT Supercup in 2011, FML stayed on with Williamson. A Ginetta G55 was added for Fergus Walkinshaw for the Knockhill and Rockingham rounds.

The team joined the Renault Clio Cup United Kingdom for the 2012 season with Jake Giddings and Aaron Williamson.[2] The team returned for the 2013 season running a single car for Giddings.[3]

Chevrolet Cruze (2013)

Finesse Motorsport entered a partnership with Tech-Speed Motorsport to run a Super 2000 Chevrolet Cruze for Joe Girling in the Jack Sears Trophy under the M247 Racing banner in 2013.[4] Girling decided to take a sabbatical from the BTCC after the mid–season break and the car was returned to Finesse Motorsport who entered it for the Knockhill round with Scottish teenager Aiden Moffat driving. He became the youngest driver in BTCC history at the age of 16 years, 10 months and 28 days.[5]
