High-speed Henrie!

Small but mighty Henrie Brodie is taking the sport of Mini Moto by storm

HE’S only six years old but Shaftesbury youngster Henrie Brodie has his sights set on competing in MotoGP or World Superbikes.

His dad Robert has a keen interest in motorbikes and racing, and Henrie took to two wheels 18 months ago when he had just turned five.

Henrie sits 13th out of 22 competitors in the British Mini Moto Championship this year and is looking for a top 10 finish.

The eight-race championship is staged at go-kart tracks around the country, with racing over three days every month from April to October.

The championship is designed to bring young talent in England through to British Superbikes and Moto GP.

Henrie, who is in Year 1 at Shaftesbury CE Primary School, is the only youngster from Dorset competing at this level.

He started in the sport at M4 Minimoto Junior Race School at M4 Karting, near Chippenham, and is coached by Sarah Harris, Lucca Allen and Holly Harris, and on separate training days by Danny Webb.

He is sponsored by Quickshifter Coffee, BMW Salisbury, Marquise Alloys, Gary Stevens Electricals and R&G Racing.

Henrie would like to thank mum Nicole and sister Amae for their help and support.
