WATTS CONSOLIDATES HIS LEAD IN THE 2 COUNTIES CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP
09.10.23Devon Giles won an uncontested round in Cadet Honda in the 2 Counties Club Championship, thereby retaining his class Championship despite one more round to go.
The Junior Blues’ were, due to numbers, unable to compete at this round which leaves Alfie Lenton clear in the lead of the Junior Blue class.
Dave Watts reinforced his position at the top of the Formula Blue grid with a pole-to-flag win. Harry Smithson, however, gave him a real shock by nearly snatching the victory at the flag, losing out by 0.03 of a second. Anthony Cleal finished 2nd overall on the day with an opposite pole start and 3rd place finish.
He, as a consequence, leapfrogs from 4th to 2nd in the standings. Joey Foster, having had to retire from the Final with a puncture, was able to use his drop option and therefore still remains in 3rd place overall.
Cleal scored a clean sweep in the Blue Master sub-class thereby extending his championship over Foster and Paul Alexander.
The Veteran sub-section was equally dominated by Cleal with a pole-to-flag win. 2nd overall is Alexander followed by Steve Groves, although David Waldron has closed in on them.
Robin Stoddart-Stones maintains his lead in the Legend group. David Goode, catching up from points lost earlier in the year, moves up to 2nd ahead of injured Kevin O’Neill.
Alexander raced away with the Top Weight days’ results from Rob Mortimore. The shock of the day was the exclusion of Waldron. Having, throughout the day lost weight, he fell below the 90kg minimum at post-race scrutineering and thereby lost 2nd place to Mortimore in the Championship.
Racers now have 3 weeks to recover and re-energise for the INDYBLUE Championship event scheduled for October 29th at Mansell Raceway.
