REVIE: Part One
For most young racing drivers, the journey begins with a kart. For Revie Lake, it began somewhere rather different: behind a simulator.

THE STORY SO FAR
Driven by PassionBuilt for the Future
Revie Lake is one of motorsport’s exciting emerging young talents, with a journey into professional racing that has been anything but conventional. Unlike many young drivers, Revie did not begin his career through the traditional karting route. Instead, he spent years developing his skills in the highly competitive world of sim racing, building the reactions, race craft, consistency and strategic thinking that would later become the foundations of his real-world driving.
Having grown up around motorsport through his father, Steven Lake, racing has always been a major part of Revie’s life. From an early age he was surrounded by race cars, engineers, mechanics and the intensity of the paddock, giving him an understanding of the sport that extended far beyond simply driving the car.

In 2025, Revie made the transition from virtual to physical racing. His first competitive race was in April 2025, when he began racing in the Ginetta Junior Championship. With very limited circuit experience, his rookie season was an important year of learning, allowing him to rapidly develop his understanding of car control, race starts, overtaking, defending, tyre management and wheel-to-wheel competition.
In 2026, Revie moved into the British GT Championship, competing with Mahiki Racing, then Paddock Motorsport in a McLaren Artura GT4 with Blake Angliss, and the support of McLaren Customer Racing.
The move from Ginetta Juniors into GT4 represented a significant jump in performance, technology and competition. Revie's sim-racing background has helped him adapt quickly, combining the analytical approach developed through years of virtual competition with the experience he continues to gain when he gets behind the wheel. Despite being relatively new to real-world circuit racing, Revie has progressed from his first-ever race to competing on some of the UK's biggest circuits in one of the country's leading GT championships in little more than a year. With every race, Revie continues to build his experience, speed and understanding of professional motorsport, while working closely with engineers, coaches and the wider McLaren racing environment to develop every aspect of his performance.
For 2027 and beyond, the focus is firmly on the next stage of that progression, continuing to develop within GT racing, competing at an increasingly international level and establishing himself as a professional racing driver.

Revie Lake's first season in British GT has been anything but straightforward. At just 16 years old, the former Ginetta Junior racer has been thrown into GT4 competition in a McLaren Artura alongside Blake Angliss, facing established drivers and some of Britain's most demanding circuits.

For Revie Lake, Snetterton offered the tantalising possibility of a breakthrough. The 16-year-old had already shown flashes of pace during his rookie British GT season. At Oulton Park, he and teammate Blake Angliss recovered from a pit-lane start to finish fourth in GT4.
