The Driver

Lewis Charlton

Lewis is the second generation of Charlton Motors — a mechanic by trade and a racer by passion. Growing up in a garage gives Lewis a genuine edge: he understands every bolt on the car and can make setup calls that most drivers can't.

Racing under the Charlton Motors banner, Lewis represents the family business on track — proving that the same passion and precision that goes into every customer car goes into car #55 as well.
