  • GSF Car Parts is proud to announce its sponsorship of rising young racing driver Lewis Turkington for the upcoming BRSCC Fiesta Junior Championship season.
  • This partnership reflects GSF’s commitment to supporting the next generation of talent within the automotive community, in particular, individuals who embody the same dedication, resilience, and work ethic demonstrated daily by its customers across the UK.
  • It also adds to GSF’s growing presence in motorsport, with a major sponsorship of Porsche Sprint Challenge team Clean Racing, British Superbike rider Joe Talbot, and up-and-coming driver Sebastian Crawford.
  • This approach forms a key part of GSF’s broader strategy as it works towards its ambition of becoming the UK’s number one aftermarket provider.

A Word from GSF Car Parts

“We are delighted to support Lewis as he continues his journey in motorsport. He represents everything we and our customer base stand for—hard work, determination, and doing yourself proud. His story is inspiring, and we are excited to be part of his development both on and off the track.  Supporting a young Northern Irish talent as we grow our presence in the region is a great way for us to connect with our new customers.”

A Natural Fit: Hard Work, Determination, and Ambition

Teenage driver Lewis Turkington represents the very ethos that defines the GSF customer base—hard-working individuals who take pride in their craft. These are the grafters: people who show up every day, put in the effort, and strive for excellence in everything they do.

Lewis embodies that same mindset. His journey in motorsport has been shaped by determination, discipline, and an unwavering commitment to achieving his goals. From a young age, he was immersed in motorsport as a by-stander, learning first-hand from his father and race teams where hard work, attention to detail, and resilience are the keys to success.  Lewis then began his journey in the driving seat at 13 years old and has been rapidly progressing ever since.

Those early influences have helped shape a young driver who not only pursues performance on track but also represents the values that matter off it: doing the job properly, taking pride in progress, and always pushing to improve. It is this attitude that aligns so naturally with the GSF brand and the customers it proudly serves.

Inspiring the Next Generation

Lewis’s story goes beyond motorsport. As a teenager with Dyslexia, he represents many young people who pursue careers within the automotive industry through hands-on, practical pathways.

He has become an advocate for dyslexia awareness, recently launching an initiative aimed at building a community that connects businesses and individuals to support and inspire young people with dyslexia.  The Driving Dyslexia Forward Club.

Through this work, Lewis is helping to demonstrate that different ways of thinking can be a strength and that a determined mindset will unlock the pathway to your future.

A Word from Lewis Turkington

“I’m incredibly proud to be supported by GSF Car Parts. Their values match exactly how I approach racing and life—working hard and always pushing to improve. I’m really excited to represent the GSF brand this season and hopefully inspire others along our way.  Our relationship comes at a very exciting time for Northern Irish garages and workshops as GSF launches up and down the country.

Having their belief in me has further fuelled my fire to keep on doing everything I possibly can to accelerate my development as a junior racing driver.  My Dad always said that those who work hardest will win, and I hope to carry on that legacy.”

Strong Roots In Northern Ireland

Born in Portadown, Northern Ireland, Lewis Turkington shares a natural and meaningful connection with GSF Car Parts as the business prepares to expand into the region. The partnership represents not only an investment in emerging motorsport talent, but also a celebration of Northern Irish roots, with GSF proud to support a young driver from the region as it strengthens its presence locally.

Coming from an extended family network deeply committed to excellence within the Northern Irish business sector, Lewis’s upbringing mirrors GSF’s own commitment to quality, performance, and continuous improvement.
