Difficult qualifying troubles Brad at Oulton Park

June 8th, 2011

The 7th and 8th rounds of the Ginetta Junior Championships were held last weekend at Oulton Park.  Brad, having finish a season’s best 4th in both races at Thruxton, was keen to be at the sharp end of the field again, but it wasn’t to be.

Qualifying on the Saturday saw Brad struggle for set up and pace, leaving him in mid-field grid positions of 8th and 11th for the two races respectively. It was going to be a tough task from there, but in round 7 on Saturday, Brad made his way to 6th place, which was a position he held until the last lap when a coming together with Max Coates saw him demoted to 7th place.

Sunday’s round 8 race again saw Brad make his up up through the field, only for him to be hit and sent into a spin. Brad got back on the track, and in a short 8 lap race did well to fight his way back up to 12th.

The next rounds are to be held at Croft in two weeks time.
