Hart Produces TCR UK Double Win at Donington Park
Max Hart scores a double victory in TCR UK rounds three and four at Donington Park this weekend
In a perfect race day for Max Hart, the young Irishman claimed a commanding victory in TCR UK rounds three and four and set the fastest lap in both races at Donington Park on Sunday 29th May. In doing so, he increased his lead in the championship standings to 44 points, as others experienced a weekend of mixed fortunes.
From the start of the first race to the finish of the second, the action never stopped with battles taking place throughout the field, underlining that the globally-regulated TCR package provides some of the closest and most exciting touring car racing there is.
Second and third in round three were Bradley Kent and Isaac Smith, whereas it was Chris Smiley and Bruce Winfield who joined the twice-winner on the podium for round four.
DRIVER QUOTES - Max Hart
“What can I say, other than what’s just happened is absolutely amazing. Coming into this weekend, I really didn’t think I was going to win both races. Okay, so winning the first was great, but then to do it again from P10 on the grid, was more than I could have hoped for.
“I’m so grateful to everyone who has supported me and the JamSport Racing team who gave me a perfect car. Whilst others had problems and got caught up with battles during the race, I was lucky to get to the front unscathed on both occasions and then, just got my head down and was able to pull out a gap. To add two fastest laps to the wins makes things even better!
“I’m approaching things differently this year. My focus is on the championship and scoring a good haul of points at every round. So, to take two wins today is a real bonus and puts me exactly where I want to be at this point in the season.”
