Masters Historic Racing begins a new chapter with GP Extreme.

[Peter Mallett]

I received the following press release from Masters Historic Racing yesterday. Thought people on here may have some thoughts.

After 20 years at the helm of Masters, founder Ron Maydon has secured a new future for Masters that ensures the passion and ethos of the company he started in 2004 will be honoured after he prepares to step back from day-to-day duties. At the head of GP Extreme, experienced racer and car enthusiast Fred Fatien, has been a supporter of Masters over the years and understands the racing community that Masters represents as well as the opportunity presented.

Masters Historic Racing will continue to operate with its regular organisational team for at least the 2024 race season, ensuring a smooth transition. GP Extreme will welcome the Masters Historic Racing team to their burgeoning fleet of motorsport activities, which includes the Dubai Historic Grand Prix. The published 2024 Masters Race Schedule remains unchanged and will forge the first step on this new Masters journey.

This dynamic new motorsport entity will seek to continue the work of Masters’ founder Ron Maydon and embrace a passion for historic motorsport into the next chapter of Masters Historic Racing.

There is a whole lot more in the e mail but the essence is above.

It will be interesting to see what additional historic events Fred brings to the table. A world tour ? perhaps.
