"I am thrilled that Halewood have come on board for 2017, I'm really excited to be back in a full time drive with Century Motorsport and Im coming back to win races and challenge for the title."
Declan Jones
Huyton-based Declan is firmly intent on making his mark on the battle for the overall Ginetta GT4 Supercup Championship title, with the support of Whitley Neill Gin.
Declan had some backing from Halewood Wines & Spirits in 2016 during his outing at Oulton Park through the Red Square Vodka brand, but this year sees Halewood giving full investment throughout the entire season’s Championship.
Declan’s Ginetta G55 will feature eye-catching jet-black Whitley Neill Gin livery and a multi-layered marketing campaign will see the exceptional vehicle tour the UK prior to and during the course of the season.
No stranger to the British Touring Car Championship support bill, Jones made a one off return to the championship at Oulton Park in June last year. Declan’s reward at his home circuit was a pair of top five finishes after a strong performance throughout the weekend and the brief outing was enough to whet his appetite to return in 2017 for a full campaign.
Declan Jones, Whitley Neill Gin Ginetta G55, says: “I am thrilled that Halewood Wines & Spirits have come on board for 2017 with its Whitley Neill Gin brand to support my title bid and I’m very excited to be back in a full time drive with Century Motorsport. Last year we got a small chance to show what we could do at Oulton Park, but this year with the opportunity to test and properly prepare ourselves I hope to be right up there. I’m not going to hide the fact that I’m only coming back to win races and challenge for the title and I believe I’ve got the right partners and the right team to do just that.”
Stewart Hainsworth, Group CEO, Halewood Wines & Spirits says: “Being so local, we’ve kept an eye on Declan’s progress over the last couple of years and we’re really pleased to be supporting him again this year. Declan’s no stranger to winning races and we’re excited for the season ahead, both in terms of Declan’s success and also how our partnership will expand the appeal of Whitley Neill Gin.”
