Liam Hatchell is a racing driver in the GPVWC who has competed in the Superleague, Supercup and Masters Series. He is currently racing for Synergetic Motorsports in the Superleague as first race driver.

Liam made his debut in the Superleague in 2009 - just one year after his racing career began - in the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps driving for Synergetic Motorsports. He finished an impressive 5th place, despite numerous restarts due to collisions between other drivers. Since then he has also competed in the Winter Series, driving the Renault Megane Cup, in which he won the championship against Joe Consiglio, winning five races out of ten rounds.

He is also the manager of the successful Hatchell-Pennine Motorsport racing team, with which he has taken five team championships and developed four drivers to collect more than twenty drivers' championships between them. It is a subsidiary of the Hatchell-Pennine Group, which runs a driver development and management programme for sim racers.


Early Career and Personal Life

Liam began sim racing in September 2008, racing a number of different cars in a number of different series'. Since his career began, he has competed in more than 300 events, won more than 30 races and had almost as many pole positions and fastest laps. He has won 5 driver's championships, including in the GPVWC Winter Series 2009/10.

Born 7th April 1992 in Ashton-under-Lyne, Lancashire, Liam was interested in motorsports from a very early age. He took a fond interest in touring cars, which he states is his most favoured racing discipline.
