Keohane to race with Promatecma
31 March 2003: International racing driver Michael Keohane from Clonakilty, Co Cork, will race with the Promatecme F3 team for the opening meeting of the 2003 British F3 Championship.
The Irish charger has been released from his Sweeney Racing contract for the Donington Park event next weekend (April 5/6) in order to give him the best chance of a strong points score in the opening pair of races. Going into his second season in the Championship class, Keohane is determined to figure prominently in the battle for the title.
In a joint decision by the Sweeney Racing team and Keohane, the 22-year-old has been released from his contract for the first pair of races, allowing Sweeney Racing and Lola personnel to concentrate on increasing the competitiveness of the new Lola-Dome F106 chassis.
The Promatecme team, race winners in the 2002 Championship, is now working flat out to provide Keohane with a car that will give him the very best chance of strong results at Donington Park where last year he took back to back wins driving for Carlin Motorsport.
