Bridger’s Law is thrilled to be sponsoring the talented young karting driver, 10-year-old Ronnie Smart, with his new race suit.
Karting has long been the breeding ground for motorsport’s greatest talents, including seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton, who began his racing career in karts (also in Kent) before rising through the ranks to global stardom. Like Lewis, Ronnie is already demonstrating the skill, determination, and focus needed to succeed in this highly competitive world.
Ronnie is continuing to move up through the karting ranks, where the costs can quickly add up from tyres to travel and race entry fees. This year Ronnie is competing with the highly respected Jaxx Motorsport team this season.
Sponsorship plays a vital role in helping talented young drivers like Ronnie continue to compete, and it’s not just about financial support. Contributions such as tyres, kart spares, or services can make a huge difference. Corporate sponsorship is also a meaningful way for businesses to give back to their community while supporting the next generation of sporting talent.
“At Bridger’s Law, we are passionate about supporting young people who are chasing ambitious goals. Backing Ronnie reflects our commitment to nurturing future talent and celebrating the spirit of hard work, discipline, and achievement,” said Duane Bridger, Founder and Director at Bridger’s Law. “We’re proud to play a part in his journey, and excited to support him as he develops his racing career with Jaxx Motorsport.”
Ronnie’s grandad Ian Smart, who Bridger’s Law networks with at Faversham-based business group ABG, also shared how proud he is of his grandson’s achievements and future ambitions:
“Supporting Ronnie as he works towards his goals is a real privilege. He’s aiming for top five finishes in both championships this season, with podiums along the way, and with the right sponsorship we’re hopeful he’ll be able to compete in the Ultimate Karting Championship or even the British Karting Championship. Support from a local business like Bridger’s Law, brings his dream closer to reality.”
“Watching his dedication and determination makes me proud every single day.”
We’ll be following Ronnie’s progress closely throughout the season, and we invite our clients and community to join us in cheering him on.
