Young talent has several club championship wins under his belt

Lumag sponsors karting star Alex Eades
Alex Eades' goal of progressing to Mini Max Karting this year is on track.

14-year-old Alex Eades became vice champion in the 2014 English Super Prix.

In 2016, he took fourth place in the Honda Cadet Superone British Championship, where 64 drivers competed for the trophy.

With a growing amount of exposure in the press, he has been approached for engine and kart testing.

Sponsorship will ensure Alex cements his place in British Karting’s top team, who have already approached him to join their ranks, providing him with a platform to race in Europe.

Lumag’s UK managing director Colin Smit commented: “Sponsoring and supporting Alex is a win-win situation as far as Lumag is concerned.

“For us to support him at the start of what promises to be a flourishing career allows a great opportunity for a good return on our investment, particularly with the amount of exposure he gets and will no doubt increasingly command.”

This is the latest development in Lumag’s wider involvement in racing, having recently launched a line of ceramic brake pads designed for premium-class cars and rally cars under its Breck brand.

The Breck high safety line, made of a new friction material mixture, comes as a result of the company’s commitment to research and development investment and months of track testing alongside Polish ex-rally champion Krzysztof Hołowczyc, gained during hundreds of completed rallies.

Colin continues: “Our aim is to increase our commitment to racing over the next few years and use the platform to underline the pedigree of the Breck brand as a high quality premium brake pad product.”
