Craig was 'raised' in a motorsport environment, attending events whilst very young and beginning his timekeeping career aged 14. He holds a Group 1 ACU timekeepers licence and when not taking charge of events, he works alongside Graeme at BSB meetings. Initially only timekeeping at weekends, Craig is now a permanent and valuable member of the TSL team. He brings with him significant business skills that will be an important asset to moving the company forward.

Sarah has been timing for over 20 years and has risen to the level of International Timekeeper for Race events. She specialises in overseeing the set-up and running of unusual and one-off events. Her role involves working closely with international race teams to ensure that their demanding and often challenging requirements are met.
Chris is our resident IT expert, having an unhealthy obsession with software. His passion for programming has resulted in skills that have been put to use not just in interpreting the timing needs for race events but also writing the timing suite that underpins our service. Having little knowledge of motorsport prior to working for TSL, Chris has now grown to love the sport.
Richard has grown up with motorsport, attending race meetings since he was three years old. His passion for the sport is shown not just in his knowledge but by the fact that he has been Chief of meetings for the last 9 years. He copes with anything that is 'thrown at him' in his own unique, unflappable style.
