Lewis Brown joins Neil Trotter in Chameleon line-up

Chameleon Motorsport has confirmed a two-car line-up for the 2023 TCR UK season, with the full-time addition of Lewis Brown alongside Neil Trotter.

Trotter made his debut in the series last season in an older-spec Cupra TCR before purchasing a new Leon Competición TCR in the latter part of the year, and was due to be joined by former MINI CHALLENGE rival Brown for the season finale at Sntterton.

Although technical gremlins meant Brown was unable to race, the pair have mow joined forces for a full campaign, with Brown’s car revealed at the recent Autosport International Show.

“I’m looking forward to starting in TCR UK afresh with a full season ahead of me this year, despite the technical setback we suffered at Snetterton,” Brown said. “I’m excited to be a part of TCR UK in 2023 and to see the level of competition that’s grown since last season.

“When I drove the CUPRA Leon Competición TCR last year in testing, it felt like a great car to drive and I feel that once I have some more seat time in the car, I can be upfront amongst the leading drivers and really going for podium places at the least, with race wins as a long term aim this year.”
