Wera Tools British Kart Championships Rounds 9&10 Silverstone
Round 9 Friday
Managed to qualify 2nd for the Final even after a wildcard from our awning blocked us in an important heat. A gamble on tyre choice went against us but we carried on regardless winning the slicks race in the rain 😂. Finished 16th after penalties.
Round 10 Saturday
Kart didn’t feel right in qualifying and we ended up being taken out on lap 2 before we could get a lap in. We won Heat 1 on a kart that didn’t want to turn left and a dodgy spark plug in Heat 2 meant a DNF. Getting loaded from behind at the start of the final by the same wildcard from Friday lead to what was a very very nasty crash for 5 competitors. This DNF knocked us out the top 3 overall and down to 5th in the championship so it looks like the plan worked.
There were tears, lots of tears and we’re absolutely gutted to end our campaign like this. We delivered on what was in our control this year and that’s what counts to those that matter, thankfully.
Anyway, hope y’all enjoyed the show ☝🏽❤️
