Leading estate agent Winkworth is revving up its backing for young racing driver Zak O’Sullivan
Zak O’Sullivan, 18 born in London, now has the full support and backing of Winkworth UK who have launched a new headline sponsorship campaign to support the Williams Academy Driver.
Winkworth’s support for the rising star began back in 2019. Zak’s family have a long association as landlords with the Winkworth office in Shepherd’s Bush and the sponsorship began with Shepherd’s Bush franchisee Carl Burgess, who handed over to Rupal and Ravi Patel when they took over as franchisees of the office in 2022.
Now Winkworth has stepped up its support for Zak across its network of more than 100 offices, with a launch for all its agents, which took place at the Williams Racing Museum in Wantage, based at the F1 racing team’s UK headquarters.
After ending his 2023 season as vice-champion in FIA F3 and testing the Williams FW-45 in both FP1 and the young driver test, Zak now targets F2 glory has he enters his rookie season with ART Grand Prix with the support of Winkworth.
Dominic Agace, Chief Executive of Winkworth, said: “Zak’s talent has captivated us all at Winkworth and we are delighted to be supporting him as a network. We are encouraging all our offices to get involved and look forward to staging promotional activities to allow our clients and agents to take part in some of the highlights in the forthcoming season.”
Zak O’Sullivan added: “I am delighted to be expanding my partnership with Winkworth in 2024, having built such a great relationship with the Shepherd’s Bush office over the last few years. The team has been very supportive of my racing, crucially in the early seasons when budget was a concern. I am excited to open this up to the wider Winkworth network and look forward to welcoming them into the F1 paddock next season.”
