MicksGarage has announced sponsorship of Formula Vee driver Michael Sweeney, and we will be following his progress as he moves through the driving season at Mondello Park and elsewhere.
Michael has already competed in Northern Ireland and Mondello this year and is confident of a successful first year in the game. The Formula Vee cars in Europe are the stepping stone for nearly all current F1 drivers, and are the immediate category down from F1.
Speaking about the sponsorship, Ciaran Crean, Managing Director, Micksgarage.ie said: "We're delighting to be sponsoring Michael Sweeney and his Formula Vee team. We wish them every success for the 2006 season. Formula Vee has a loyal following among car enthusiasts in Ireland and we’re proud to be involved in whatever way we can and to give something back to the sector in which we do our business".
Speaking after a recent race in Mondello, Michael Sweeney said: "I've had some very exciting races since I’ve started in the Formula Vee series. I’m delighted that Micksgarage.ie is behind me and I’d like to thank them and my other sponsors for their support. We have a busy schedule of races planned for the 2006 season and hopefully I can start climbing up the leader board and start notching up a few wins".
