THRIVING racer Tony Bennett has been rewarded for an exultant season by being named in the top 100 race winners across the British Isles.

The multi racing accolades for the Bishopstone driver was recognised in the Autosports Golden Helmet Award for 2014.

His fantastic season culminated in 19 podiums - 17 consecutive – bagging nine outright wins, three of which were outside of the UK and were therefore disregarded by the award adjudicators.

Bennett looks to start where he left off, getting his racing season under way at Snetterton, Norfolk on April 12.
