RACE REPORT ~ Silverstone!!!🏁🏁🏁
A Team: P10
Heading into the final round of the season, the A Team boys were ready to give it everything to improve their championship standings. However, it proved far tougher than expected. There were plenty of great battles throughout, but on a new track we underestimated just how powerful the slipstream would be. Unfortunately, every position gained quickly turned into a sitting duck down the straights.
Despite the challenges, Owen Tolley delivered an outstanding performance, securing a win in his final BUKC race and helping the team finish inside the top 10 in the championship.

B Team: P11
Heading into Silverstone Circuit, the B Team were already at a slight disadvantage, as regulations meant they could only field three eligible drivers adding extra pressure at a crucial stage of the season. While outright pace was lacking, the boys didn’t let that hold them back. Both Barton and Adam delivered standout performances, showcasing impressive attacking and defensive driving throughout the race.

C Team: P20
The C Team were without a doubt the highlight of the round. Chris delivered an incredible qualifying performance to take pole, but a penalty set him back, and in the race his raw pace almost worked against him, ending in a spin. Balint had a tough qualifying, but completely turned it around in the race gaining an incredible 18 positions, with 14 of those coming in just the opening five laps. Michal impressed by making it into the top 10 in qualifying. Although he dropped back to finish P16, it was a strong showing and highlighted major progress in only his third race. Finally, the standout surprise came from Vice President Oliver Doyle, who qualified P6 and finished P4 in just his fourth race an outstanding result that now makes him eligible for the next BUKC Drivers’ Championship. Absolutely mega.
