Experience
From very early on in his driving career, Josh was earmarked as a “Star of the Future” by leading figures in the sport. It
wouldn't take long for Josh to live up to his quickly growing reputation, as in 2016 he became the only driver in history to
take the Irish and English Junior Championship titles in the same year. An impressive feat at just 17 years of age and Josh
would begin his rallying career as it would continue...

Vision
2017 saw Josh progress into the British Rally
Championship, contesting selected rounds in
Citroen C2 R2MAX. Despite the leap into the most
competitive series in Europe, Josh immediately
stamped his mark by setting a strip of top 5 stage
time in his National debut. Sporadic outings followed
when budget allowed and he continued to impress,
landing a mid-season drive in a modern Fiesta R2T
for the Nicky Grist Stages. His performances in 2017
have ensured Josh is the “one to watch” in 2018 and
beyond as he aims for the top echelons of the sport.

The Team and Car
MH Motorsport is a professional rally team based in the UK, specialising in the entire range of Ford motorsport evolution's.
From the Ford Fiesta R2 to the all-new R2T and world conquering Fiesta R5, MH Motorsport has experience at all levels of
international competition.
Team Principle Mike Harris was delighted at the new signing and believed Josh would be the perfect addition to the team.
“We had been keeping an eye on Josh for much of last season so when we had the opportunity to put him into one of our
R2T’s, we grabbed it with both hands,” said Harris.
“He returned a very mature drive on the Nicky Grist Stages and it was more than enough to convince us that we wanted
him back full-time this season. With our close links to M-Sport and the backing behind us, we are confident that we can
give Josh the best possible chance of the Junior title in 2018”.
The Ford Fiesta R2T is a state of the art Rally Car built and developed by World Rally Champion's, M-SPORT. The giant killing
1-litre Turbo machine produces a monstrous 180BHP and torque of 250NM, fitted with Reiger Racing Suspension and a
5-speed Sadev Sequential Gearbox, this is Josh's choice for his assault on the 2018 British Junior Rally Championship.
