Ben’s thoughts:
Qualifying saw me P8 on a 1:12.3, A great weekend at Castle Combe had another steep learning curve on Thursday as well as Monday.
Race 1 started with moving up to P6 by half way through lap 1 and holding it till the end of the race with a 1:12.0 PB laptime.
Followed by race 2 running in P5 for a while setting even better lap times at 1:11.6 keeping in touch with the lead pack, before an incident ahead promoted me onto podium!

Coming into this weekend I wasn’t expecting much, but walking away with my first podium of the season and 42 points off the championship lead with 120 left for the season 1 point off P3 with absolutely zero testing before this weekend I’ll take it! Not so bad at all haha!
Thank you to Oldfield Motorsport for all the continued effort towards getting me to this point and we’ll keep pushing!
