10th May

After a strong qualifying result of 6th a turbulent start race 1 saw me drop back to 7th in the early stages. A red flag came out, allowing me second attempt at the race start. I got a much better launch the second time around, making up some ground and getting into 3rd by the Shell Oils hairpin. The leaders pulled away but as the race progressed the two out front made contact causing a second red flag, ending the race early and earning me 2nd place.

Race 2’s start was hectic as I started from the outside of the grid. I challenged for the lead round the outside at turn 1, but it didn’t work in my favour. I dropped to 7th after my trip across the grass on lap 1. A safety car was brought out at the half way point, bunching the grid back together. With 5 minutes to go the safety car dove for the pits. I broke away with the top 6 for the final stages of the race. After the chaotic race and a valiant fight I crossed the line in 5th.

19th/20th July

We carried on the momentum from our first visit to Snetterton for the opening round, consolidating me as a championship contender. This weekend I had my best qualifying of the season so far, 3rd place.

Race 1 saw me lose a position, finishing 4th, but I still remained at the sharp end of the grid.

I raced hard in race 2, coming from 4th to finish 2nd on the podium.

This meant I stared 9th for the reverse grid race, but I didn’t let that stop me from fighting my way forward. I battled my way through to finish 2nd once again. Finishing off another successful weekend in the 240.

13th/14th September

Summer is definitely over, on and off showers all day Friday meant track conditions were constantly changing. Saturday morning was no different with tyre choice for qualifying being a gamble. We decided that full wets was the way to go and that choice paid off, putting me 3rd for race 1.

The sun came out for race 1 and we were back on slicks. A clean start meant I could break away with the front row drivers. A mistake from one of the drivers ahead gifted me 2nd place early on, giving me the chance to battle for the top spot. The race was pretty controlled from there on out with me and the leader pulling a huge 8 second gap over everyone else. Unfortunately, a red flag in the closing stages of the race put a stop to my battle for the lead as I came home in 2nd.

As we waited in assembly for race 2 the heavens opened, soaking the circuit and gearing us up for a wet race. A strong start gave me and early lead. I pulled a 1.6 second gap in the first lap but a safety car bunched the grid back up behind me. However, with a clear road ahead of me, I quickly rebuilt my gap after the restart. Then with 6 minutes on the clock disaster struck, as my engine overheated, forcing me to DNF.

Engine issues in race 2 meant it was all hands on deck to get it changed for race 3 on Sunday morning. Coming from the back of the grid in the final race of the weekend was short lived as the second engine overheated too, leading to to DNF again. Despite mechanical issues in the latter stages of the weekend we still showed strong pace when everything was working.

5th/6th April

It was a double header weekend for us at the opening round of the 2025 season as I competed in the the ST240 and ST150 championship’s.

The weekend kicked off this qualifying where I strung a strong lap together putting myself 3rd for race 1 in my debut race in the ST150.

Race 1 saw George move up the front pack to take 2nd. Race 2 was a similar story, I took 2nd place once again. Race 3 is always interesting with the top 6 being reversed. Staring 5th didn’t stop him charging back up to the front where I finished 2nd again.

A hat-rick of 2nd places in my debut ST150 weekend, a very successful opening weekend to my ST150 campaign.

7th/9th June

We made the trip over to Wales for another double header weekend.

A top 10 qualifying meant we were in the fight to move forward from 7th on the grid. Race 1 started well, I quickly made up 5 places to 4th. Unfortunately, the race was then red flagged and restarted. The second start wasn’t as strong and I came across the line in 7th.  Race 2 was a battle, I moved up into 5th during the early stages. As the top 6 broke away from the rest of the field we broke off into pairs out in front. As the race progressed everything settled and I finished the race in 6th.

A reverse grid for race 3 saw me start from the front row of the grid in 2nd. There was a lot of pushing a shoving in the initial lap of the race, dropping me back to 4th. As the race continued on I gave a good fight to the quicker drivers starting behind, ending the race in 6th position.

Consistent results and a good points haul for the championship.

9th/10th August

A winning weekend!

The weekend started off strong, showing front running pace and qualifying pole for race 1. I led from the front in race 1 and brought it home in 1st place, starting the weekend off with a win. Race 2 was a similar story, crossing the line in 1st place and making it 2 wins out of 3 so far. A reverse grid in race 3 had me starting down in 7th but that was no problem as I quickly made my way to the front of the pack to make it a hat-rick of wins.

A strong weekend at Cadwell has extended my championship lead to 68 points as we head to the penultimate round at Silverstone.

At the beginning of December we flew out to Portugal for our final event of the year, the Citroën C1 Euro Cup, 24 hours of non stop C1 action around the iconic Algarve circuit. After a season of sprint racing, this is a nice way to end the year.

The weekend began positively with a strong qualifying performance, securing 16th on the grid and placing the team in a competitive position ahead of the race.

Our race was disrupted almost immediately. One of my teammates was involved in an incident in the initial stages of the race, leading to an unscheduled 45 minute trip to the pits. This dropped the car back down to 44th, last place, turning the race into a recovery mission from the get go. However, I hoped in the car for my first stint and started to gain back some ground, leaving the car in 42nd after my first outing.

Taking over the night stint, the focus shifted to consistency and survival. While I gained no positions on track, the rest of the team had gotten us up into 37th. With 36th place 5 laps ahead when I jumped in the car, the approached remained calm and patient. After all, endurance races are a marathon, not a sprint.

Momentum began to build during the penultimate stint. Strong pace and clean driving allowed for significant progress through the field, advancing to 29th and setting our sights firmly on the top 20.

The recovery continued into my final stint, reaching 23rd position. This stint also featured a personal highlight, with a new fastest lap of the race for me. At this stage it was over to the rest of the team to continue the fight to the finish.

Despite an extremely challenging start, we delivered an impressive comeback to finish in 22nd. Given the early setback and time lost, this result was a testament to our resilience, strategy and determination throughout the race.
