DAILYSPORTSCAR 2005 Awards 10 – UK Rookie of the Year Just three nominees here and only the mercurial Phil Keen makes the cut from the headline GT2 class – his performances aboard the Eclipse Mosler were a real eye opener, definitely a star of the future.

In GT3 the joint champion was a revelation – Dimitris Deverikos was all but unknown before the season, but was quick and safe aboard the Tech 9 Porsche all year.

A clear winner here though was a young man who didn’t take Route 1 – in a year when the entry was dominated by Porsche and Ferrari he chose a different course and impressed everyone with his pace and racecraft aboard the Team Aero Morgan.
