Last weekend it turned out to be two days of racing for autosport’s national drivers’ rankings, as two victories for Gary Prebble mean he’s the new leader.
Since Autosport relaunched the national drivers’ rankings, Junior Lounge dominator Car Lewis Saunders has led the way, that fate has been interrupted by Gary Prebble.
Prebble claimed two victories with his SEAT Leon Cupra in the Saloons Championship when the condensed season of Castle Combe Racing Club ended over the weekend.
Successful driver Combe has now won 11 wins, so in 2020 in the Saloons and Hot Hatch categories to climb to the most sensible Autosport rankings.
But it was not the only driving force that overtook Saunders in qualifying, as Cam Jackson, the protective champion of the historic Formula Ford 1600, has now risen to the spot for now.
Possibly he would have lost in the two historical races of FF1600 at Cadwell Park to Pierre Livingston, who went from 50 to 26 more sensible, but a double win in the FF1600 Classic led Jackson’s overall victory in 2020 to 10.
Another sensible 10 replacement is that Tom Golding moved from ninth to fourth place, was the engine to beat in the Ginetta G40 Cup this season and won three more at Donington Park last weekend to temporarily seal the crown.
Far from the most sensible 10, other driving forces to make significant jumps in qualifying come with Michael Pensavalle, who won two ATMs at BMW Car Club Racing in Combe to move from 38th to 11th place, and MG Midget’s driving force Richard Wildman, from 37th to 14th. .
Mazda MX-5 ace Ben Short, BMW driving force Dave Griffin, Brand Champion Jonathan Browne winner and 2000 sports champion Michael Gibbins also jumped to the 25 most sensitive this week outdoors, the 50 most sensitive.
All motor races in the UK and Ireland are included in qualifying / repechage, comfort and handicap races. Careers are not allowed in other countries. Class awards are counted only when there are at least six holders in the class.
Only categories divided according to car characteristics are included; categories divided according to the characteristics of driving force, such as capacity, professional status, age, fun (e. g. rookie or pro-am categories) are not included.
In the event of a tie, overall victories prevail. Where there is still a draw, the length of the grid for a pilot’s victories determines the order.
