🏁 RACE WEEK — SILVERSTONE FINALE! 🏁

It all comes down to this… 👀

This weekend we head to Silverstone International with TNR Motorsport for the final rounds of the BRSCC Nankang Tyre CityCar Cup Championship and Student Motorsport

We arrive at the finale leading both the overall CityCar Cup Championship and the Student Motorsport Championship — but with everything still to play for, there’s plenty of work left to do! 💪

🔧 Friday — Testing
🏁 Sunday — Qualifying, Race 1 & Race 2

It’s been an incredible season with the Northbrook College team, and now we’ve got one final weekend to try and finish the job.

Two championships on the line. Two races remaining.

Let’s see what we can do. 🏆

🏆 POLE, DOUBLE WIN & A PROVISIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE! 🏆

What a weekend at Snetterton with Team Northbrook College Racing (Team Northbrook Racing) in the British Racing and Sports Car Club (BRSCC) CityCar Cup & Student Motorsport Championships! 🔥

Testing Friday showed strong pace, and after a few setup tweaks the car was feeling mega.

⏱️ QUALI — POLE!
Found some space on my final lap and hooked it together to take P1 by almost 0.6 seconds! 🥇

🏁 RACE 1 — P2 + Fastest Lap
ABS failed on the warm-up lap and wouldn’t reset. A difficult race managing the braking issue, but we salvaged a strong P2.

🏁 RACE 2 — P2
Took the lead after a great battle, only for a late red flag to result in a countback which put us back to P2. A frustrating one with the championship fight so close!

🏁 RACE 3 — P1 🏆
Great start from P2, took the lead into Turn 1 and controlled it to the flag.

🏁 RACE 4 — P1 🏆
Pole to victory, building a strong gap and finishing the weekend with fastest lap AND a new lap record! 🔥

That also meant 4/4 Student Motorsport wins and provisionally secured the 2026 Student Motorsport Championship for TNR — our 4th title in 5 years! 🏆

And we’re now 4 points ahead in the overall CityCar Cup Championship with just two races remaining at Silverstone.

A huge thank you to everyone involved at TNR. We had some issues with the car over the weekend, but they were quickly fixed and it was a rocket ship! 🚀

Everything to play for. 👊

🏁 RACE WEEK — SNETTERTON! 🏁

Back to Snetterton this weekend with TNR Motorsport Northbrook College for Rounds 12, 13, 14 & 15 of the BRSCC Nankang Tyre CityCar Cup Championship and Student Motorsport 🟠⚫️

It’s been a strong season with TNR so far, and with four races across the weekend there are plenty of points on the table as we head into the business end of the championship. 🏆

As always, the weekend is about more than just the results. Working alongside the students, putting everything we’ve learned this season into practice and helping them experience the pressure, problem-solving and teamwork of a real race weekend is a huge part of why I love being involved with this programme.

📍 Snetterton
📅 19th–20th September
🏁 4 races — Rounds 12–15
🔧 Team Northbrook Racing
🎓 Student Motorsport Challenge

Time to get back in the Peugeot and see what we can do! 💪

🏆 FROM THINKING OUR SEASON WAS OVER… TO A DOUBLE WIN AT CROFT! 🏆

Two weeks after the huge crash at Donington left our MINI badly damaged, we genuinely didn’t know whether we would race again this season.

It wasn’t until late Wednesday that we knew Croft was happening. We arrived Thursday evening and the PRO-AM Racing team worked until 4am Friday getting the car back together and ready for testing.

Friday started cautiously, making sure everything was straight, the gearbox was working correctly and the car felt as it should. By the second session I was pushing properly — and knew we had a great car underneath us!

Saturday qualifying, working with the drivers from Westbourne Motorsport to create a tow, I managed to hook up a mega lap…

🥇 POLE POSITION AND A NEW CROFT TRACK RECORD!

After everything it had taken just to get there, what a way to start the weekend!

🏁 RACE 1 — P1

Starting P2 on my second-fastest qualifying lap, I tucked in behind the leader before pressure from behind meant it was time to attack.

I took the lead at Sunny In, ended up three-wide heading into the Complex, backed out and then got back up the inside at the final corner to come out leading!

From there I held on to take my first overall MINI CHALLENGE UK Trophy podium… AND WIN! 🏆

📺 RACE 2 — P1

Pole position and live on ITV4 as part of the BTCC weekend.

I held the lead into Turn 1 and tried to break away before a late Safety Car brought the field back together.

I prepared for a possible one-lap shootout, but ultimately we finished under Safety Car.

TWO RACES. TWO WINS. 🏆🏆

From thinking our season was over just two weeks earlier to leaving Croft with pole position, a new track record and two overall wins.

Pretty emotional!

A huge amount of credit has to go to Scott Thompson and the entire PRO-AM Racing team. What they achieved with the car in such a short space of time was incredible. Scott put everything into getting us back onto that grid, and being able to repay the team’s hard work with these results meant so much to me.

A massive thank you to all of my partners and sponsors who continue to make this possible, everyone who supports me, and of course my family and friends.

And especially my gorgeous partner, Charlotte. ❤️ She unfortunately couldn’t be at Croft, but after Donington she kept my head in the right place, supported me through a pretty difficult couple of weeks and kept me believing we could come back from it.

She might not have been there to celebrate, but she was a huge part of getting me back there.

From thinking it was all over… to standing on the top step twice.

What a comeback. 🏆🏆

🏁 DONINGTON PARK — THE PACE, THE LAP RECORD… AND A PAINFUL END

A weekend that’s going to sting for a while — and I’m not just talking about the ribs.

After a wet Thursday, qualifying on Saturday was effectively my first proper dry running at Donington in this car. Starting P10, we made steady progress through the races:

P11 in Race 1
P9 in Race 2

Then Race 3 came alive.

The car was an absolute rocket 🚀 From P10, I fought my way up to P5 and onto the back of the leading group — setting a new MINI Challenge Trophy lap record along the way. ⏱️🔥

Unfortunately, on the penultimate lap, I was clipped in a confusing incident involving a slowing car and sent hard into the wall. The car recorded a 30G impact.

Thankfully, everyone walked away without serious injury. I’ve got some bruised ribs, but the MINI didn’t fare quite so well.

The DNF leaves us just 8 points ahead in the Directors Championship, P5 in the Rookie standings and P11 overall.

A huge thank you to PRO-AM Racing for giving me a car capable of fighting at the front, and to WiRE — Women in Race Engineering for another brilliant weekend of developing early-career female motorsport engineers.

Thank you as always to all our partners, especially Rainford Engineering and R50 Motorsport Marketing, for their continued support.

Now we assess the damage, regroup and work out how we get back on that grid.

Because Donington proved one thing:

We have the pace. 💪

🏁 RACE WEEK | CADWELL PARK 🏁

This weekend we’re heading to one of my favourite circuits on the calendar as the BRSCC Nankang Tyre CityCar Cup Championship and Student Motorsport head to Cadwell Park for Rounds 10 & 11.

Cadwell is a circuit that has everything. Fast, technical, undulating and incredibly narrow, it’s a track that demands precision and commitment every lap. In these little CityCars it always produces brilliant racing, and I can’t wait to get back out there.

I’m heading into the weekend leading the Student Motorsport Championship and sitting just five points behind in the overall CityCar Cup Drivers’ Championship, so there’s everything to play for over the next two races.

📍 Weekend Schedule

Friday 7th August
🔧 Testing

Saturday 8th August
🏎 Race 1

Sunday 9th August
🏎 Race 2

Looking forward to another weekend with TNR Motorsport (Team Northbrook College Racing), working alongside the students and pushing for some strong results. Let’s keep the championship fight alive! 👊🧡🖤

🔧 A huge shoutout to the team at RTW Service & Repair

They’ve recently added a fuel injector cleaning, testing and balancing machine to their ever-growing list of services, and after using it myself, I can honestly say it’s well worth considering

I’d been chasing a frustrating lack of low-end torque and an overall loss of power in my race car. After testing my injectors, RTW found they were quite a long way out of balance. They rebuilt them, thoroughly tested them, and balanced the set to within 2% of each other

The difference was immediate. The car felt alive again, with the power delivery back to how it should be – if not even better than before

It’s surprising how much of an impact a slightly imbalanced set of injectors can have on engine performance, drivability and efficiency. If you’re chasing a power issue or simply want the peace of mind that your injectors are performing as they should, I’d definitely recommend getting them checked

The turnaround was incredibly quick, the communication was excellent, and they were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish

RTW offer far more than injector servicing too, including:
✅ Basic wheel alignment
✅ Full four-wheel alignment
✅ Diagnostics
✅ Interim, full & major servicing
✅ Brake servicing
✅ ECU remapping
✅ Ford Transit wet belt replacement
✅ Motorsport preparation & support
…and much more.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, friendly workshop that genuinely cares about getting things right, give RTW Service & Repair a shout 👏

🏁 Thruxton ✔️ | MINI Challenge Trophy Championship | Round 4

What a weekend! My first time racing at the UK’s fastest circuit, and we had the pace to fight right at the front all weekend. It’s always an experience being on the TOCA package, with so many spectators walking around and TV cameras everywhere. Thruxton Race Circuit definitely delivered!

Friday testing wasn’t without its challenges, battling ABS issues for much of the day, but the team worked incredibly hard to get everything sorted before qualifying.

Qualifying was one to remember. With a good tow around a circuit where it makes all the difference, I put together some strong laps and came into the pits with 8 minutes remaining to find I was P1! Unfortunately, I slipped back to P3 by the end of the session, while my second fastest lap left me P11 for Race 1. Just 0.5 seconds covered the top 15 cars!

🏁 Race 1: P11 ➡️ P7

🏁 Race 2: Started P6 but got caught up in plenty of contact, dropping to P15. Despite a buckled wheel and a hole in the radiator, I fought back to P12.

🏁 Race 3: Starting P3 in front of the huge BTCC crowd, I briefly took the lead before an incredible battle saw the top group run nose-to-tail to the finish. I crossed the line P6, just 0.4 seconds behind the winner.

Overall, another hugely positive weekend. The pace is there, we’re fighting at the front, and it’s only a matter of time before everything comes together.

Massive thanks to everyone at PRO-AM Racing for giving me a fantastic car all weekend, and to all of our partners for making it possible.

It was also brilliant to have the WiRE project back in the paddock, welcoming three more talented female motorsport engineers. If you’d like to follow their journey, head over to The WiRE Project

On to the next one! 👊🏁
