2021 GT4 European Series champion Charlie Fagg has been confirmed as the third and final driver in D’Station Racing’s FIA World Endurance Championship line-up.
The 22-year-old will team with Satoshi Hoshino and Tomonobu Fujii aboard the #777 Aston Martin Vantage AMR, which is operated by TF Sport.
Fagg graduates from GT4 racing, having won the GT4 European Series in a United Autosports-run McLaren 570S GT4 last year.
“I’m delighted to announce that I will be racing in the FIA World Endurance Championship with D’station Racing,” said Fagg. “To be able to compete at this level is something I have always dreamt of doing and to do it with such a fantastic team is more than I could have hoped for!”
“Whilst it’s a big step up, I am honoured to be able to learn from my fantastic teammates, Hoshino-san and Fujii-san and being able to make my 24 Hours of Le Mans debut with them, is the icing on the cake.”
“I cannot thank everyone at D’station Racing, TF Sport and EDGE Management enough for this unbelievable opportunity. I am so excited to get started next month at Sebring!”
The Silver-rated Briton is the team’s replacement for Andrew Watson. Watson was no longer eligible to race with the squad after he was upgraded from Silver to Gold ahead of the 2022 season.
“We are really pleased to have Charlie on board with us for the season,” said TF Sport boss Tom Ferrier. “The D’station Racing entry showed their pace in 2021 and I have no doubt that Charlie will take this step up to GTE in his stride.
“Being able to support young, talented drivers up through the GT racing ladder is something extremely important to me and I’m glad we’ve been able to support Charlie in such a significant step in his career.”
