Joseph Knight is very much a rising star in the world of motorsport and is currently making a big impression in the BRSCC Airtec Motorsport Fiesta ST240 Championship. The young driver is backed by Delphi and has been speaking about his ambitions in the sport. 

Joseph started his motorsport journey at just 5 years of age when his father bought him a Go-Kart. He moved up to racing full size cars at the age of just 14 and won  the Fiesta Junior Championship in 2020. 

He made his debut in the BRSCC Airtec Motor Sport Fiesta ST240 Championship in 2023. Now, at the age of 18, Knight is once again piloting his Mark VII ST 180 Fiesta with a formidable 240 brake horsepower for a second year in the series.

“His journey began with a simple gift from his father, but his dedication and skill have transformed him into a true racing phenomenon,” said Raj Sangha, UK Marketing Manager at Delphi. “We're proud to sponsor Joseph and witness his relentless pursuit of excellence in every race he conquers."

Supported by Delphi, Knight is determined to make a statement on the racetrack. His sights are set on future goals, aspiring to compete in the British Touring Car Championship and to ultimately race at Le Mans.

“I want to make my mark as a racing driver in the next couple of years,” said Knight. “The goal is to drive at Le Mans. I’d obviously love to win but even to simply drive it, that's my biggest goal. Every time I’m on the track, that’s what I’m thinking about.”
