Rockingham to Thrills on Rockingham Race Day

After the thrills of Oulton Park, Round Two at Rockingham had a lot to live up to and it didn’t disappoint. The first race of the day saw Max Bladon take the chequered flag, but only after the race was restarted when a red flag prompted a full re-grid. The second race was no less dramatic, Reece Barr, a former double Irish karting champion, secured the top spot and in doing so became the fourth winner in the championship so far. Now after two rounds only 11 points separate the top three drivers; Max Bladon is currently first, Charlie Butler-Henderson second and Reece Barr third, so it’s all to play for.
