Sit back as Adam catches up with Jake and Josh after an unforgettable World Championship weekend, talking through the highs, the setbacks and everything it took to get there. Behind every race was a family giving absolutely everything. From day one, mechanical gremlins hit all three hovercraft, leaving Rob and Marie working flat out behind the scenes. Long days became longer nights, but giving up was never on the cards. Jake’s first season in Formula1 has been exceptional, racing against the very best in the world with maturity and determination. Even in the final race, finishing on just two cylinders, he dug deep and secured an incredible second place overall in the F1 World Championship. For Josh, it was a different kind of fight. Racing in both Formula 2 and Formula S, he took heavy knocks, dealt with damaged machinery and endless mechanical problems. When he realized his own championship hopes had slipped away, he made the selfless decision to step back on the final day and help focus the team’s efforts on keeping Jake in the title fight. Results only tell part of the story. What stood out most was a family refusing to be beaten. Join Adam as he hears first hand from Jake and Josh about one of the toughest weekends of their racing careers. Recycling MMRHP

Team Phoenix at the Worlds. Rudy Dormer, Junior World runner-up. Fought for every point, huge result. Digby Dormer, Colts, battled endless setbacks, then bounced straight back to win a race and take third overall. Louis McGavin collected his GCSE results, then straight into an unfamiliar craft and improved every single session. None of this happens without the Phoenix crew and club members who stepped up with kit, know-how, and long hours. That’s teamwork, that’s resilience. Congratulations all around.

Team Phoenix. Digby. World Championships. 🔥
A proper behind-the-scenes moment with Digby, relaxed, natural and completely unscripted. HRR’s Harry has been around the Phoenix camp all year, so the chat just flows.

No fuss. No second takes. Just Digby, Team Phoenix and a proper bit of racing talk. Metzner Recycling MMRHP

Adam catches up with Germany’s Mario kohl, Team Cohl in F2, to talk through the highs and lows so far. From that lightning start yesterday to the engine gremlins that bit later on. He’s joint third, everything is up for grabs, and you can feel that determination. Brought to you by Hovercraft Racing Reels, and a big shout out to Metzner Recycling. Metzner Recycling MMRHP

Mario Kohl, Germany’s own Formula2 charger, came out swinging on race one of day two. He launched off the line, grabbed the early lead, lost it just before the water, but he fought back hard. Right now, he’s sitting joint third, tied with two Swedish pilots, a father and son duo, with only eight points covering the top five. Everything’s still up for grabs. Yesterday, though, he didn’t finish the last race due to engine trouble. That sting is real, but the fight is very much alive. Metzner Recycling MMRHP

Random checks, real results. This morning at the World Hovercraft Championships at Whittlebury, Germany’s Mario Kohl is the 2026 Champion and currently sitting joint third in F2 here at the world championships. He was one of several pilots called up for a random breathalyzer during driver’s briefing. Result, a clean zero. It’s a routine part of race weekend here, drivers mingle, camp, and celebrate together off track, so organizers run random alcohol checks to keep the racing and the paddock safe for everyone. Professionalism in the pits as well as on the track. Metzner Recycling MMRHP
