Mahiki Racing is set for a challenging season, fielding both McLaren GT3 Evos and Ginetta G56 GT4 Evos in their respective categories. Team owner Lake praised Rowledge’s growth in the sport, noting, “His pace, professionalism, and approach to racing really stood out. I’m confident he’ll be a great fit within the team.”
He further remarked on his personal connection with Rowledge, recalling their past collaboration in karting. Lake emphasized the team’s commitment to strong performances and professional growth in the upcoming season. “We’re hugely excited about what lies ahead and can’t wait to get the season underway,” he concluded.
With Mahiki Racing striving for competitive excellence, all eyes will be on Rowledge and Lake as they aim to make a significant impact in the 2026 British GT Championship.
