Ben Barnicoat has had a very unusual year. The 23-year-old McLaren GT factory driver should have already made his debut in the Le Mans 24 Hours with Carlin, having earned an automatic entry for finishing second in the Asian Le Mans Series over the winter.

He also should have carried on the momentum from a strong showing in the Bathurst 12 Hours - placing second in a 59Racing McLaren - in the remainder of the Intercontinental GT Challenge and added programmes in the European Le Mans Series (also with Carlin) and the GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup for 2 Seas Motorsport.
