Jeremy Gumbley ready for round 1 of the SEAT Cupra Championship 2008

West Sussex multiple Kart Champion Jeremy Gumbley will this season be competing in this year's SEAT Cupra Championship in one of the top teams, Welch Motorsport.

After a positive testing program, Gumbley is confident that he can challenge for the title alongside his two team mates, Carl Breeze, third in last years championship and Daniel Welch who won several races in 2007.

Gumbley (pictured above left) said: "My aim is to be challenging for race wins from the first round and to ultimately win the SEAT Cupra Championship. Welch Motorsport are a fantastic team to be involved with and offers me a great package to be able to deliver the results."

Welch team boss John Welch said: "It's great to have a third driver of the calibre of Jeremy on board and with three talented drivers in the team it will help us be where we want to be, and that is winning races and having a great shot at the SEAT Cupra Championship.”

"We believe that we now have the strongest driver line-up on the grid."

Development work and testing will take place over the next few weeks, with testing planned at, Brands Hatch.

Gumbley hopes to be fully prepared for the season opener at Brands Hatch on Sunday, March 29th and 30th.

SEAT Cupra Championship races will enjoy an extensive TV package in 2008, with some races broadcast live on ITV4, courtesy of the new HiQ MSA British Touring Car Championship TV deal.

The SEAT Cupra Championship will also be broadcast on the Motorsport UK series, to be shown on ITV4, with repeats on its sister satellite channel, Men & Motors – giving competitors and sponsors on the SEAT Cupra Championship grid maximum exposure.

ITV4's Motorsport UK will be broadcasting a series of shows dedicated to the BTCC support races, starting on April 29.

The show will be aired twice a week over a 34 week run, with the first broadcast in a new Tuesday tea-time slot, with a repeat showing later that same evening.

Men & Motors will then broadcast the show the following week, meaning the SEAT Cupra Championship will benefit from the 64 hour BTCC TV package across the two channels – but that's not the end of this extensive coverage.

The SEAT Cupra Championship, as a major support series to the BTCC, will also benefit from the new three year TV deal, which will see every BTCC meeting televised live on ITV4.

This adds up to a staggering 46 hours of live broadcast time, allowing ITV4 to show some support races live on ITV for the first time – including the SEAT Cupra Championship.
