“Last year was an unforgettable battle right down to the final moments, and securing the championship is something I’ll always cherish.
“This season brings a different kind of challenge, but after getting to grips with the RWD Porsche’s last year, I’m feeling confident and ready to hit the ground running.
“A huge thank you to my incredible sponsors for their continued support – none of this would be possible without them.
“It’s fantastic to be back with the team of Rosland Gold Racing by Century Motorsport and can’t wait to get the season underway!”
The team will run two cars in the series with a second car driven by South African Pro Driver Andrew Rackshaw, a former Formula Ford 1600 South African champion in 2021. New to the car, Gamble will be the man to help and advise Rackshaw.

The cars, all the same, boast a four-litre six-cylinder boxer engine that delivers up to 510 hp and that’s impressive stuff.
With two high-calibre drivers and a team with such a proven track record, they will be one to watch once again during the new race season.
The Porsche Carrera Cup GB Championship starts at Donington Park on April 26-27 and rounds will be televised live on ITV4 during the season.
