The British Automobile Racing Club served up a late summer spectacular at Brands Hatch this past weekend (August 31/September 1) with Caterham Motorsport grabbing a majority of the headlines around the short Indy layout.
As the 2024 season begins to edge towards what is shaping up to be a thrilling conclusion, the Kent circuit provided a fitting backdrop for some captivating entertainment – which included many breathtaking moments along the way.
The Caterham Academy Championship, which is for drivers that are embarking on their first year in national motorsport, was at the forefront of the action as its Green and White groups served up a blockbuster contest apiece.
In the Green category, Harrison Cavers notched his first win of the season after pipping Bruno van Dyke to the chequered flag by less than a second while Paul Oggelsby got the better of William Harris to triumph in the White group.
Spoils were shared in the Bilstein Caterham Roadsport Championship as Paul Goldstein and Jonathan Emery scored a win apiece. Such was their dominance over the rest of the field, the pair also tailed a second place finish as well.
The Mission Motorsport Caterham Seven 270R Championship produced a trio of memorable races and up until the finale it had looked as though the weekend belonged to the impressive Charlie Lower.
Winning races one and two in commanding fashion, Lower looked on course to record a sensational hat-trick of victories before he was hit with a time penalty for gaining an unfair advantage. That dropped him back to third and handed Harry George the win.
While Lower failed to secure all three wins in his class, Taylor O’Flanagan did manage to achieve the feat in the Motul Caterham Seven 310R Championship. Despite missing out on pole position, O’Flanagan managed to pace the opposition to strengthen his title charge with a maximum score.
Reigning Vertex Caterham Seven UK Championship title holder Lewis Thompson remains firmly in with a shot of retaining his title this season after delivering another impressive display in Caterham’s premier series.
Two wins from three races proved to be the highlight for the accomplished racer with Harry Senior – who has made a name for himself in the Caterham Graduates Championship in recent years – also making it onto the top step of the podium.
Over in the OT Publishing Coupe Cup with Toyo Tires, Daniel Munro was the toast of the field as he charged to an impressive brace of race wins in the popular one-make tin top category.
Munro wasted no time in establishing himself as the driver to beat as he romped to pole position in qualifying before then converting it into consecutive lights-to-flag victories. Mark Ridout and Neale Hurren were the best of the rest in both races to complete the top three.
Also on the billing over the course of the weekend was the Classic Racing Car Club Classic Formula Libres, CMMC Hoosier Tire Intermarque Silhouette Series and CMMCS Ashstone MEP Super Saloon Car Series / Tin Top Series.
