Top 20 Brands Hatch Rollercoaster

Cork Racing driver Micheal Fitzgerald scored two solid Top 20 results at Brands Hatch in the United Formula Ford Championship in England at the weekend.

Jason Smyth won both races leading home Micheals B-M Racing team mates Rory Smith & Jordan Dempsey from Westmeath each time in a pair of races punctuated with Safety Car intervals in each 32 car grid race.

Brands Hatch is a renowned motor racing circuit in the UK, known for its challenging layout with elevation changes and a mix of fast and technical corners. The circuit has a rich history, hosting major events like the British Grand Prix and British Touring Car Championships, and is a favorite among drivers and riders for its thrilling nature.

Fitzgerald qualified Q21 for Race 1 & 2 finishing P17 & P20 in each.

Micheal said "Lancashire based B-M Racing is a brilliant home from home for me. The technical and team support is phenomenal and the only negative is I wish I had found this incredible squad a decade ago. The United Formula Ford Championship is one of the leading UK motorsport championships blending the best new racing driving talents and very experienced veterans. There is no easy race in Formula Ford"
