Yorkshire racing driver invests more than £300k in 'climate positive' driving experience venture

A new business that offers punters the chance to put the pedal to the metal in performance cars while positively impacting the environment has launched in Yorkshire.

Hype Motorsport was set up by Leeds-based former Ginetta driver Ben Hyland and business partner Mike Jarvis and claims to be the first in the UK to offer people the opportunity to race at top UK and European circuits while offsetting the carbon footprint.

The firm will offer corporate teams and motorsport enthusiasts racing at circuits such as Silverstone, Brands Hatch and Spa while using low-carbon commodity company SCB to redress and improve on the carbon footprint.
