Opus Safety is backing British racing driver Lydia Walmsley for the remainder of the 2026 Porsche Carwow Sprint Challenge GB season. Opus Safety branding runs on her race car and helmet from Knockhill to the end of the year.
Opus Safety has become a partner of Lydia Walmsley Racing for the remainder of the 2026 Porsche Carwow Sprint Challenge GB season.
The partnership begins at Knockhill and continues across the remaining rounds of the season, with Opus Safety branding featuring on Lydia's race car and helmet.
Lydia is a British racing driver competing in the Porsche Carwow Sprint Challenge GB, one of the UK's leading single-marque GT championships. She finished the 2025 season as Vice-Champion in her class and was voted Driver of the Year.
Motorsport is one of the few environments where safety is designed in from the outset rather than bolted on afterwards. That is how we work with our clients: as their outsourced health and safety team, building close partnerships that help them manage risk, meet their legal duties and keep their people safe.
John Southall, Director at Opus Safety, said:
We've been following Lydia's season and she's exactly the sort of person you want to see do well. Her talent, ambition and determination really stood out to us.
Competing at this level takes an enormous amount of commitment, both on and off the track, and talented drivers need strong backing around them. We're proud to support Lydia for the rest of the season and we'll be cheering her on at every round.
Lydia Walmsley added:
I'm really pleased to welcome Opus Safety as a partner. From our first conversations, they showed a genuine interest in the racing programme and what we're working towards.
Their support means a great deal, and I'm proud to represent Opus Safety throughout the remainder of the 2026 season.
The partnership also creates opportunities for Opus Safety to bring customers and partners trackside across the rest of the championship.
