Power Maxed Racing Collects More Trophies at 2026 TOCA Awards Night
Independent Teams' and Independent Drivers' crowns, the Jack Sears Trophy, a runner-up spot and the BTCC Social Media Award cap a standout season for the Audi S3 squad.
Power Maxed Racing added five more honours to its trophy cabinet at the 2026 TOCA Awards Night on Saturday 7th November. The awards closed one of the most successful seasons in the team's British Touring Car Championship history, a year that also brought the team's first ever BTCC one-two finish.
The team was crowned Independent Teams' Champion with LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing. Mikey Doble took the Independent Drivers' title, Aiden Moffat finished runner-up and Dexter Patterson lifted the Jack Sears Trophy. Away from the track, Charlie Parsons took the 2026 BTCC Social Media Award for Power Maxed Racing.
It was a fitting end to a year in which the Audi S3s won races, set pole positions and led the Independent standings. The team went into the final round at Brands Hatch with two titles still to decide and won both.
Independent Teams' Champions: LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing
LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing led the Independent Teams' standings for much of the year. The team went to the Brands Hatch finale 33 points clear and sealed the title in the second race of the day on Sunday 11th October.
Both Audi S3s scored consistently throughout the 2026 season. The high point came at Silverstone in September, where Aiden Moffat and Mikey Doble finished first and second in Race 1 to give Power Maxed Racing its first ever BTCC one-two.
The title is the team's second Independent Teams' Championship, following its first in 2024.
Independent Drivers' Champion: Mikey Doble
Mikey Doble claimed the Independent Drivers' crown in his #88 Audi S3, his first Independent Drivers' title. He won two races outright: the season opener at Donington Park and the Race 3 reverse0grid at Croft in September. He also won the Silverstone Qualifying Race from pole, setting the fastest lap.
Doble took seven Independent class wins across the season. He arrived at Brands Hatch with a 25-point lead and clinched the title in Race 2, passing Daryl De Leon on the final lap.
The championship makes up for 2025, when Doble missed the Independent Drivers' title by just four points. He has raced with Power Maxed Racing in every one of his BTCC seasons since his 2023 debut, and he won the Jack Sears Trophy with the team in 2024.
Independent Drivers' Runner-Up: Aiden Moffat
Team-mate Aiden Moffat finished second in the Independent Drivers' standings in the #16 Audi S3, giving Power Maxed Racing a one-two in the class. He led the Independent standings after the opening round at Donington Park.
Moffat's season peaked at Silverstone in September. He won Race 1 by just 0.092 seconds from Doble, then finished third overall in Race 3. At the Brands Hatch finale he took pole position and won the Qualifying Race.
It was a strong first season with the team for Moffat. He made his BTCC debut in 2013 as the championship's youngest ever driver, backed by Power Maxed Racing's partner brand Steel Seal.
Jack Sears Trophy: Dexter Patterson
Dexter Patterson sealed the Jack Sears Trophy with a round to spare at Silverstone, driving the #17 Steel Seal with Power Maxed Racing Audi S3. He left Silverstone with a 111-point lead that no rival could close.
The Glaswegian ended the year with his first BTCC podium, finishing third in Race 3 at Brands Hatch after starting from reverse-grid pole. Patterson joined Power Maxed Racing for 2026 after earlier BTCC seasons in 2022, 2023 and 2025. Before touring cars he was the 2017 CIK-FIA OKJ Karting World Champion.
It is Power Maxed Racing's fifth Jack Sears Trophy, the most of any team in the award's history. Mikey Doble won the previous one for the team in 2024.
BTCC Social Media Award: Charlie Parsons
Charlie Parsons won the 2026 BTCC Social Media Award for the team's digital output across the season. The award recognises the coverage that kept fans close to the team across all ten rounds, from race-weekend updates to behind the scenes content from the garage.
The award adds an off-track honour to the team's championship haul. It reflects how Power Maxed Racing tells its story to fans as well as how it performs on track.
Power Maxed Racing will now turn its attention to the 2027 BTCC season. Plans for the year ahead will be announced in due course.
The team ends 2026 with two independent titles, the Jack Sears Trophy, race wins for both Doble and Moffat, and a first podium for Patterson. It will aim to build on that in 2027.
