Stig's son joins McLaren - Telegraph
The son of 1984 World Rally Champion Stig Blomqvist has joined the McLaren Mercedes Formula One Team Driver Development Programme.
Tom Blomqvist, 18, became the youngest driver ever to win the Formula Renault UK championship in 2010 when he was just 16 years old. In 2011 he competed in the German Formula 3 Cup, where he took one victory and four podiums.
His performances on track have already resulted in him winning the British Racing Drivers' Club's Henry Surtees Award for the most outstanding performance by a young racer in 2010, as well as being short-listed for the 2011 McLaren Autosport BRDC award.
