"Obviously, we're quite disappointed to be losing someone who has meant so much to our young programme as Jeff has," Ray said, "He's one of the original members of our team, and we've had a fantastic working relationship. I felt we performed, on many occasions, beyond the means expected from a start-up, one-car team."
Access plans to announce Britton's replacement early next week.
