Progressive Safety are more than excited to announce our support for James Williams in the Motorsport UK British Rally Championship.

Last year James was rookie of the year and finished 3rd in the overall Championship standings. This weekend he is competing in the Beatsons Building Supplies Limited sponsored, Jim Clark Rally, organised alongside the Jim Clark Memorial Motor Club. The event is to run across the weekend of 26-28 May 2023 based around Duns in the Scottish Borders. The event is a round of the British Rally Championship, Scottish Rally Championship and National Asphalt Championship, and is named after the 1963 and 1965 Formula One champion.

In 2022, James debuted the all-new Hyundai i20 R5, and this year takes to the track in a Ford Fiesta Rally2.

James is quoted: "Last season was a good year on the whole, but I have high standards and want to improve in many areas. If I want to be realistically fighting for wins and hopefully the title, the Ford Fiesta is one of the cars for the job. It’s a proven winner around the world and I want to thank NPL Rally Hire and M-Sport for putting this deal together.”

In anticipation for the event this weekend, Anna Topham, Operations Director said: “Rallying is an integral part of British Motorsport and aligns with the history of the JCB brand. As a family we have a keen interest in manufacturing, especially across advanced performance industries so to have the opportunity to work alongside James in both his commercial career and in his journey as an active competitor is ideal. It ticks so many boxes, and joins so many dots. Look out for more news of their progress while the team feature the JCB Workwear safety footwear and clothing.”
