Michael Doyle (born 18 June 1987 in Glasgow) is a Scottish racing driver, who competed in the British Touring Car Championship in 2008. Doyle's team was family-owned,[1] and part of a garage services business which he worked for during the week. The team was managed by Andy Scott, formerly of Synchro Motorsport.[2]
He was not among the front-runners in his aged Honda Civic,[3] and was not among the top 10 non-works drivers to finish until race 7 at Donington Park. He ran 10th for part of race 6 at Rockingham, before spinning out.[4] His first points came in race 13 at Croft, which was stopped early due to rain.
Racing history
After a career in karts (including two Scottish titles in 2002), Doyle contested the 2004 Renault Clio Winter Series. From 2005 to 2007 Doyle raced in the full Renault Clio Cup, which supports the BTCC. He finished 4th overall in 2006,[5] and took a win at Snetterton in 2007. He also took a victory in the equivalent Italian series, in a race at Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium.
