Team BRIT has written yet another major chapter in its history book, with Paul Fullick and Jamie Falvey securing the 2026 GT Cup Championship GT3 class title following the final round of the season at Snetterton.
The victory sees Paul and Jamie become the first all-disabled driver pairing to win a GT3 championship, marking a significant milestone not only for Team BRIT, but for disability motorsport worldwide.
Driving our BMW M4 GT3, the pair delivered a season of pace, consistency and determination to secure the championship against competitive GT racing teams. It is also another major step forward in our mission to become the first all-disabled team to compete at the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Paul, who is a below-knee amputee, and Jamie, who has significant hearing loss, shared driving duties throughout the season, with the BMW M4 GT3 specially engineered to adapt seamlessly between their needs. At the touch of a button, the car can switch between a conventional pedal-operated setup for Jamie and a bespoke hand-throttle system for Paul, allowing both drivers to compete at the highest level in the same championship-winning car.
The final rounds at Snetterton on the 10th and 11th October, saw their lead confirmed by Saturday. On Sunday, it was all about pushing for overall championship points, and two overall P1 finishes were secured in both the pitstop and sprint races.
Paul said: “This championship means an enormous amount to both of us. To become the first all-disabled pairing to win a GT3 championship is something we’re incredibly proud of.
“The standard in GT Cup has been exceptionally high all season, so to come away with the title is a testament to the whole Team BRIT crew and everyone behind the scenes who have worked so hard to make this possible.
“For me personally, it’s another reminder that disability doesn’t have to limit ambition. We’re proving what can be achieved when drivers are supported by a great team and given the opportunity and the technology to compete on equal terms.”
Jamie added: “Winning the GT3 championship is a fantastic achievement and a real reward for the effort that has gone into this programme.
“Sharing a car with Paul and being able to challenge for wins all season has been brilliant. The engineering team has created something incredibly special that allows us both to drive the car in the way that works best for us without compromise.
“We’re all proud to have made history, and it’s been a really special season for me, having joined the team shortly after starting my racing career nine years ago, then returning to what is now one of the most incredible moments of my racing journey so far.”
Behind the scenes, the championship-winning BMW M4 GT3 showcases the innovative engineering at the heart of our mission.
Team BRIT engineers developed a sophisticated control system that allows the car to adapt to the driver. Using custom software and CAN-based electronics, the car can switch between two completely different driver interfaces, enabling Jamie to drive conventionally while allowing Paul to operate the throttle through a specially designed steering wheel paddle. The result is a GT3 race car that presents each driver with the controls they need while maintaining the performance and integrity of the BMW’s original systems.
Team Principal Mike Scudamore said: “This championship win is more than a trophy. It is further proof that disabled drivers can compete and succeed at the highest levels of motorsport when barriers are removed.
“From grassroots racing to GT3 competition, we continue to demonstrate what is possible through determination, innovation and opportunity.
“As celebrations begin after a historic season, the focus remains firmly on the future.
“The GT Cup GT3 title is a landmark achievement, but it’s also another step closer to the ultimate goal: racing at Le Mans and changing motorsport for future generations.”
