A WARRINGTON businessman reflected this week on his double success in the Le Mans 24 Hours motor race.

Mike Newton was at the wheel of the winning MG Lola EX264 as it crossed the finish line south of the French city 24 hours after the three-driver team started out on as many circuits of the 8-mile course as possible.

The 46-year-old chief executive of CCTV manufacturer AD Group, whose head office is based in Appleton Thorn, was also a member of the driving team that emerged as the winners of the same LMP2 class in 2005.
