He finished second in the Senior British Championships aged just 15
The final two rounds of the Senior X30 championship took place on the same weekend at the PF International Kart Circuit at Brandon, Lincolnshire, with Harrison pipped to the title by home-track hero Gus Lawrence – who is eight years his senior.
Harrison started from pole in the 18-kart final but was involved in a collision in lap two which pushed him off the track and set him back to eighth place. Mercedes driver Hamilton is one of Harrison’s main inspirations but being part of a team that has seen racers go on to race in Formula One in Norris and Albon gives him plenty of hope for his future.“It gives me a lot of confidence that people have made a huge future for themselves from the exact same position I have been in,” he toldHarrison, who attends school in York, has to combine his studies with a busy race schedule.
