On behalf of the Directors of the British Powerboat Racing Club we are so sorry to hear about the tragic accident over the weekend in Weymouth which resulted in the sad loss of Mike Lovell.
Due to our long association with Powerboat P1, we consider all the racers who come to compete at Cowes as part of our extended family and we are thinking of friends and family at this very sad time.

Sadly not many of us knew Mike but as a fellow powerboat racer, please will you pass on our sincere condolences to his family and friends and anyone who knew him at this sad time. Our thoughts and prayers are with his team mates and friends following this terrible and tragic accident. Our very best wishes for a speedy recovery to his co-driver.
