Backed racer to compete in the British kart championship

5th May 2022

Landsail backed Deacon Russell from Jaxx Motorsport will be competing for the first time this weekend in the WERA Tools British Kart Championship! With an average of 500 drivers competing each year, this is the biggest karting championship in decades with some of the world’s most famous drivers having British Kart Championship titles on their CVs, including Anthony Davidson, Paul di Resta, Mike Conway and more.

13-year old Deacon will be the only driver from Liverpool racing at the PFi premier karting facility this weekend, as he looks to make a strong start in the first round of the competition.

Everyone from Landsail Tyres wishes Deacon the best of luck in his upcoming races and can’t wait to see his progress. Catch all of the action live over at Our Motorsport UK’s YouTube channel who will be streaming the races online, click to learn more
