Rob Smith was confirmed as the first signing for new outfit Excelr8 Motorsport in 2019.
Smith competed with the squad for the previous four years in the MINI CHALLENGE as part of the official MINI UK VIP Customer Team, where he was a consistent front-runner.
After joining Excelr8 in the MINI CHALLENGE part-way through the 2014 season following a switch from the Renault UK Clio Cup, Smith took his first victory at Silverstone in only his third appearance in the category and has been a title contender in each of the following seasons, claiming a further six wins and 18 podiums since the introduction of the JCW class.
