Milltek Sport Honda Civic Cup, Rounds 3, 4 & 5
Brands Hatch Indy, 19-20 April 2025
By hemr2025
Round 2 of the Milltek Sport Honda Civic Cup at Brands Hatch Indy.
Whilst it was a very up and down weekend, I do have lots of positives to take away from the weekend.
Qualifying – race 1 p17
A very disappointing qualifying, I knew I had the pace in the car but during the early stages I got a stone caught in my front brake caliper which meant I struggled slowing the car down nearly going straight off most laps but managed to get a good lap in from the bad situation
Race 1 – p17 > p12
Race 2 – p12 > DNF
Race 3 – p20 > p16
The races brought a lot of mixed results for me. After having an amazing race in Race One and moving 5 places up the grid, with lots of good battles and matching my best ever finish. Race Two then saw me starting p12 on the grid, where I got a good launch but sadly got caught up in some unavoidable contact on the first lap, causing my race to finish after one lap. After this result I went into the last race with the only intent of moving forwards up the grid, since I was starting from p20. I got a good launch but once again got hit going into turn two, which sent me sideways, causing me to hit another car. This contact left me with lots of damage and a very bent rear axle but I still managed to survive and make it to the end of the race with some good battles and some places gained.
Overall, it was a unfortunate weekend, but as always, I have found lots of positives to take into the next round. A big thank you to all my sponsors for supporting me and allowing me to make the grid.
