Career

Early years

Born in Blackburn, Morgan began his career in Cadet Karts from age 8–11 (1996–99), then moved on to higher classes such as Junior TKM and Junior Max. He remained in Karts until 2004.

In 2006, Morgan competed in the National Historic Rally Championship in a Ford Escort Mk1 Mexico. He won 4 out of 7 rallies entered and finished the season second in class.

Morgan made his racing debut in 2008, competing in the Ma5da Championship and two rounds of the Ginetta G20 Cup, where he achieved his first race win at Pembrey.

For 2009, Morgan began racing in the Ginetta G50 Cup for the last two rounds, with a best finish of fourth. He remained in the championship for 2010, finishing in sixth place overall.

Morgan proceeded to race with family run Ciceley Racing during the 2011 season, and won the inaugural Ginetta GT Supercup and with it a fully funded British Touring Car drive.

British Touring Car Championship

Speedworks Motorsport (2012)

He was the 2011 Ginetta GT Supercup champion, for winning the championship he received a fully funded drive in the 2012 British Touring Car Championship with Speedworks Motorsport paid for by Ginetta.[2] Morgan matched the pace of test driver James Thompson in his first winter test session.[3] He did not finish any of the races in his first meeting at Brands Hatch, he crashed out of the first race and was unable to start the second race. He was caught up in a multi car pileup in race three after oil was deposited on the track by Mat Jackson's car. He started on pole position for the reversed grid third race at Rockingham but lost the lead on the opening lap in the wet conditions, he went on to finish 11th.[4] He took a best finish of 8th in the penultimate round of the season at Silverstone and he finished the season 19th in the drivers' standings.

Ciceley Racing (2013–)

In September 2013, Ciceley Racing announced it would build an NGTC Mercedes A-Class for the 2014 British Touring Car Championship season.[6]
