A Renault vehicle was the car to produce some top results recently in an annual company contest.

The motor was driven by son of Top Gear’s Stig, Tom Blomqvist, in this year’s Michelin Formula Renault UK Winter Cup.

On November 7th the driver became the youngest person to take home the title at the event, at just 15-years-old.

The Swede got two wins and the two fastest final round laps however it was Harry Tincknell who was the Winter Cup’s overall winner.

CRS’s boy came second and third, in addition to already winning at Snetterton the previous weekend.

The Michelin Formula Renault UK Winter Cup was the final occasion that Renault’s tatuus-built chassis would be used as 2010 will see the introduction of a new vehicle from the brand.

Renault attributes its Michelin race to launching Lewis Hamilton’s career among other motoring stars.

In 2008, two events hosted by the World Series by Renault attracted a total crowd of around 110,000 people.
