Team BRM expands to three-car S5000 team with Tim Berryman
Tim Berryman is the latest driver to join the S5000 field ahead of the series debut at Sandown this weekend.
The New South Welshman will drive for Team BRM alongside Rubens Barrichello and Alex Davison.
Berryman won the 2014 Radical Australia Cup and has competed at Spa-Francorchamps in the Radical Masters Euro Series.
More recently, Berryman has been racing his Formula 5000 Lola in Historic race meetings across Australia.
He said “I’ve done a lot of racing in open wheelers and big horsepower prototypes, so I feel like I will be ready to take on S5000.”
“I’m very excited by the whole category. I’m over the moon to be involved in the first event at Sandown. I’ll be in the same garage and the same team as Rubens Barrichello, so it will a real ‘pinch yourself’ moment.”
“For me, it’s the perfect race car. High horsepower, wings and slicks, paddle shift and above all else, very safe. There’s nothing else like it anywhere in the world and I feel the fans are going to get behind it.”
“I don’t really have any expectations for results. I just want to learn the car as quickly as I can. I have’t not driven it yet, but I think I will get my head around it quickly, hopefully have a clean weekend and be in the mix.”
