Driver Johan Gouws Jr highlighted the importance of starting strong this year, with a key focus on qualifying performance. “Qualifying at the front of the grid is critical in Formula Vee. It gives us the best chance to avoid unnecessary incidents and lets us focus on racing for podium finishes. We’ve been working hard to ensure the car is in top condition for the upcoming season.”

He also stated that the addition of Quaint Mettle Energy marks an exciting development for the team. “We’re thrilled to welcome Quaint Mettle Energy as a new partner for 2025,” Gouws said. “Their high-quality fuel and oil products will play a vital role in maximising the car’s performance and reliability throughout the season.”
