Hawksworth signs with TORGOEN Swiss UK

Jack Hawksworth is delighted to announce a new sponsorship deal with TORGOEN Swiss UK for the remainder of the 2011 season. Jack will carry the logo of the Swiss watch brand, who specialise in professional pilot watches, on his race car, overalls and helmet for the remainder of the year to promote the deal which sees the Bradford based driver become a TORGOEN Swiss ambassador.

Hawksworth, who currently sits 3rd in his debut season in the Formula Renault UK Championship at the halfway stage, commented on the deal: "Partnering with brands like TORGOEN Swiss is exactly what I need at this stage of my career. They are extremely ambitious just like me and together with TORGOEN Swiss I hope to ride to the top of the racing ladder. I've had a great start to my first year in slicks and wings and this deal is a great boost going into the second half of the season."

Peter Carmichael, Business Development Director at Since 1853 Ltd, Official UK Distributor for TORGOEN Swiss, was delighted to add Jack as a brand ambassador. "We've targeted motorsport as an integral part of our growth in the UK as it fits perfectly with the long heritage TORGOEN Swiss has with competition pilots around the world. We see Jack as a driver of huge potential and we are very pleased to have him as part of Team TORGOEN Swiss", said Carmichael.

Along with Jack, Team TORGOEN Swiss is made up by British Touring Car Championship front-runners Matt Neal and Gordon Shedden, and CIK-FIA Vice World-Champion Jordan Chamberlain. Jack's season resumes on August 6 at Snetterton, Norfolk, after a 6-week mid-season break. Coverage will be live on ITV4 from 11:30 on Sunday August 7 - tune in to see the new TORGOEN Swiss ambassador in action!
