Chris Dittmann Racing has confirmed that Zak Taylor will return to the team for a full season in the 2023 GB3 Championship.
The 20-year-old impressed at the Tewkesbury-based outfit last season, having made a late switch to the team for the final two weekends of the year, and scoring three top-ten finishes in six races.
After building a strong working relationship with the team through those two meetings, the young Brit is aiming to continue the positive momentum into 2023, with the hopes of collecting more silverware after claiming a maiden series podium at Spa-Francorchamps.
Taylor’s GB3 graduation came after a promising first year of single-seaters in the British F4 Championship in 2021, with a win and four additional podiums, and he'd been a podium finisher in Ginetta Juniors prior to that.
