Team Parker Racing has revealed the livery and driver line-up for its 2019 British GT GT3 campaign with Bentley.

The team will race a brand new Continental GT3 with returning driver Ryan Ratcliffe and Glynn Geddie.

“As soon as I started driving with the team last year, I knew I wanted to continue with them and going elsewhere wasn’t an option,” said Ryan Ratcliffe.

“I spoke with Stuart at the end of last year and there was an option to do Blancpain, but I love doing British GT and when the deal came up to do it with Glynn, I bit Stuart’s hand off. The UK circuits are so challenging, and the cars are so big and fast, there is just something about driving the Bentley that gives me a thrill. I like the championship and the way it’s run and there are good quality entries.

“Glynn has proven in the past that he is quick. I’m looking forward to the new car; I drove it in August last year and it is awesome. It’s got something about it, and it’s definitely one of the most aggressive looking cars out there. Towards the tail end of last season, everything clicked, and I was enjoying driving the first-generation Bentley but I’m looking forward to getting out in the new Continental GT3.”

Like Ratcliffe, Geddie also has history racing with Parker, he makes his return some nine years after he competed in Porsche Carrera Cup GB with the team. He was crowned Pro-Am 2 Champion in 2008, Pro-Am 1 Champion a year later, and finished fourth overall in 2010. Since then he has raced to success with championship titles in British GT and Supercar Challenge and also spent time in the British Touring Car Championship.

“We’re very happy to welcome Ryan and Glynn back to the Team Parker Racing family,” said Team Manager Stuart Parker. “Ryan had a tough time last year with some unlucky moments, but he was great to have around, and we know there is more to come from him.

“It is really nice to have Glynn back onboard as well. It has been a while since we worked together but he showed his speed in Carrera Cup with the team and went on to great things in sportscars, so he’s going to be a big part of the team moving forward with the new car.”
