It's the second time an Evans family member has scored a double victory in the same year - his father Gwyndaf was awarded WMW’s inaugural Tom Pryce Trophy in 1996 having won the BRC that year, with Elfyn replicating the feat exactly 20 years later.
The Automotive Achievement Award went to Riversimple of Llandrindod Wells for the radically innovative Rasa lightweight hydrogen-powered prototype car. Road-legal and built for full European Type Approval, it can cover 300 miles on 1.5kg of Hydrogen and has the lowest 'well-to-wheel' carbon emissions of any vehicle. The awards were presented by HM Lord-Lieutenant for Gwynedd, Edmund S Bailey.
