“I’m really looking forward to the new challenge of running my own team. It’s a big step and a bit of a leap into the unknown, but it’s something I’ve considered doing at various stages throughout my career.
With the growth of the business, now feels like the right time, and I’m really excited to be bringing my two passions together.”
Coffee businessman Cummins, added:
“The competition is tougher than ever, so I’m under no illusion as to how much work this is going to take.
But I’ve been fortunate enough to work with some great people and great teams over the years, and I’ll be bringing all that know-how together to make sure I’m in the strongest possible position when it’s time to go racing.”
