Andrew Turvey is the owner of BRJ-57 and he lives in the UK. BRJ-57's claim to fame was winning the prestigious 1963 V Grand Prix de Monaco, the Formula Junior race supporting the Monaco Grand Prix. After taking second in the First Heat to the works Ron Harris Lotus 27 of Peter Arundell, the Midland Racing Partnership car of Dickie Attwood took a five second win ahead of Frank Gardner's Brabham BT6.

Midland Racing Partnership were effectively the Lola works team and a string of other good results saw Dickie finish the season in joint fourth place, shared with fellow MRP driver David Hobbs, in the B.A.R.C. / Express & Star Championship.
