Harvey's win came in his fourth race for the Fortec team

Jack Harvey has become the first driver to win a race in their first season in the Formula BMW Europe series.

The 16-year-old won the second race on Sunday at Zandvoort in the Netherlands after finishing fifth in the first.

Harvey told BBC Radio Lincolnshire: "None of the drivers had been to the circuit before so it was quite a level playing field.

"My team has been very supportive and we feel we are pushing forward. The other drivers were happy for me."

Harvey, from Bassingham, is back in action this weekend at Silverstone, when the BMW Series races support the British Grand Prix.
