British GT: Orange Racing powered by JMH confirmed for 2025 Season with adjusted lineup

Orange Racing powered by JMH becomes the next entry confirmed for 2025 British GT season in the GT3 category. Team owner and driver Simon Orange have been confirmed to stay in the driver line-up and will be joined by Three-time British GT3 race-winner Marcus Clutton as he switches team for the upcoming season.

Despite being new to the team, Clutton is not new to the McLaren 720S GT3 Evo that the team will continue to run for 2025 as he had been driving the McLaren for the last four years now with Garage 59 and Enduro Motorsport. It also will not be the first time that Clutton will race with the outfit either as he raced with the team in 2022 in the Asian Le Mans Series.

Marcus Clutton said: “I’m delighted, and excited, to start a new journey with Orange Racing powered by JMH. Since working with them at the Asian Le Mans series, back in 2022, I knew they had the ingredients of a race winning team. That hasn't happened yet, so I relish the challenge of achieving this for the team, staff, and particularly Simon. Simon has a great amount of raw pace and has shown this previously when racing against him. With some fine tuning I'm confident we can make him a consistent front running AM driver in one of the most competitive fields around. Working with McLaren again ensures my previous years can be drafted into the package and hopefully we can hit the ground running. Workshop work has already commenced, and the level of detail has ramped up massively.”

Simon Orange and his team have also changed the team livery quite significantly compared to last year as the team has ditched the papaya for an all-new livery for 2025 as the team gets ready for their third season in British GT. The team hoping Clutton’s experience will help the team move forward after good results are few and far between, 2025 could be a better year for the team.

Team Owner Simon Orange said: “This year marks a return to the top Pro-Am category for me, and the team, and we are chomping at the bit to get started. Management have done a great job of retaining the services of our talented team of engineers, mechanics, and support staff, which helps immensely, as continuity is key. The big change for this year though is my partner in the car. I’m so excited we were able to secure the services of Marcus Clutton. I first met Marcus when he joined the team for Asian Le Mans, and we got on like a house on fire. Since then, we have remained friends and when the opportunity came to sign him, we jumped at the chance. Work is underway in the factory and his presence is already paying dividends, due to his vast racing experience and knowledge of the McLaren 720S GT3 Evo, which we are campaigning again this year. I would also like to thank Rob Bell and the team at McLaren Customer Racing, as we continue to develop an ever-growing relationship. After two years of indifferent results, I feel energised for the new season, and we go into 2025 with the aim of winning races and taking a shot at the title.”
