The world could Ollie Millroy’s oyster in 2015 after finishing this year with some silveware in the trophy cabinet.

The 24-year-old former Reeds School student concluded his 2014 racing season in fine style by helping Team AAI secure the Asian Le Mans Series GT championship in Malaysia on Sunday.

The Esher race ace and team-mates Jun San Chen and Tatsuya Tanigawa defied tricky conditions the Sepang Grand Prix circuit to guide their BMW Z4 GT3 to second in the final three hour race of the season. The championship triumph secures the team an autom atic entry to next year’s Le Mans 24hr race.

Millrow switched to GT racing in 2012 after abandoning early hopes of breaking into Formula One and he revealed this year’s success meant there were plenty of options on the table next month.

And he paid tribute to manager Rod Vickery for his part in getting back on to the podium this season.

“Between racing and other commitments I’ve only had three weeks at home from the past 21, so it’ll be good to get back and spend Christmas with my friends and family,” said Millroy, a JEANRICHARD Watches brand ambassador.

“Of course I’ll be training as well, because 2015 will be upon us in no time.”

“My manager is working extremely hard on our plans.

“We’re mulling over a lot of options from staying in the Asian Le Mans Series to racing in the World Endurance Championship, switching to the European Le Mans Series or perhaps going to America for United SportsCar.

“Rod’s hugely passionate about racing and the effort he’s put in has been phenomenal, so I need to say a big ‘thank you’ to him – and of course my sponsors, family and friends – for their support this year.”

Millroy was at the wheel for the race’s second 75 minute spell and was able to stretch a 26 second gap to third – despite the small matter of a broken drinks bottle – before Tanigawa brought the team home.

“Physically it was probably the most difficult stint I have ever done,” he added.

“The heat was something else – almost 70°c inside the car – and as I don't wear a cool-suit I really felt it.

“To make matters worse my drink bottle wasn't working, so I was especially pleased to secure a strong result.”

“Sepang doesn't suit the BMW perfectly, which allowed the Clearwater Ferrari to pull away out front.

“But we were able to keep our sister car behind and that was what mattered.”

“The race was clean and the pit-stops went smoothly.

“Overall it’s been a good year.”
