Revision as of 11:56, 9 December 2012

Jordan Davies (born February 19, 1995) is a British racing driver from Monmouth, Wales, currently racing in the F3RWRS. He is the younger cousin of F1RWRS driver James Davies.

Career

Davies' career as a racing driver began in 2006, when he started his first officially sanctioned kart race. Though he would win his first 4 races, throughout his karting career, he struggled to establish himself amongst his peers. Still, by 2013, he was given a shot at proving his worth in British Formula Ford. Over 2 campaigns, Jordan again looked fairly ordinary - though he did improve from 2 podiums in 2013 to 10 in 2014, he did not compete for the championship and did not win a race. According to an interview with his cousin, James, Jordan did not have the best of equipment in karting or in Formula Ford, which could explain his lack of results.

F3RWRS

For 2015, Jordan secured another move up the racing ladder to West Cliff Racing's F3RWRS outfit. It is believed that his cousin's prior status as part of Anglo-Manx Racing's championship-winning effort in 2012 had a role in securing his place at the team. Regardless, Jordan immediately impressed, qualifying and finishing 2nd on his debut, before winning his second race from pole - his first win since he graduated from karting. Although he has not finished on the podium since, 3 4th places have ensured he still holds the championship lead at this point.
