[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]UFI Filters<\/strong> has announced a partnership with young British driver Harry King<\/strong>, official Porsche GB Junior Driver<\/strong>, for his participation in the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland and Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup championships<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

At only 22 years old, Harry King has already achieved significant milestones in his sports career, demonstrating himself to be one of the emerging talents of British motorsport by winning the Carrera Cup GB title in 2020, becoming the youngest driver ever to win the championship, and being named Autosport Driver of the Year in 2020<\/p>\n

Throughout his career, King has shown to be a driver with great technique, speed, and determination, as well as possessing a great maturity and adaptability to different race situations. This was recognized when he was named Official Porsche GB Junior Driver in 2020.<\/p>\n

After making his debut in the Ginetta Junior Championship in 2017 and claiming his first championship title in 2019 in GT4 Series, he had also recently become the Carrera Cup GB Benelux Champion in 2022, with sights firmly set to add another title to that list.<\/p>\n

The partnership between UFI Filters and Harry King is based on shared values of integrity, passion, excellence, and the desire to achieve increasingly ambitious goals<\/strong>.
