Fortec Motorsport’s Linus Granfors has been crowned as GB4 Champion after taking podiums in all three races at the Brands Hatch season finale. The 16-year-old Swede claimed the title after taking second place in this morning’s race two and then delivered a drive truly worthy of a champion by going from 11th to third in the final contest of the year this afternoon.

KMR Sport’s Harry Burgoyne closed the gap in the GB4 Championship title battle, as he went from third on the grid to victory in the first race of the weekend at Brands Hatch. Championship leader Linus Granfors started from pole after securing another double in qualifying but was demoted to fourth in the race before recovering to complete the podium.

Isle of Man-born Nickolas Ellis will make his GB4 Championship debut with Elite Motorsport at Donington Park next month (7-8 September). The 17-year-old Cambridge-based driver made his car-racing debut with the Norfolk squad at Brands Hatch last September and now has 22 Ginetta Junior Championship races under his belt, gaining valuable racing experience with Elite.

KMR Sport’s Lucas Blakeley stormed to a crushing victory in the second GB4 race of the weekend at Silverstone, while Elite Motorsport’s Finn Harrison was triumphant in a dramatic event finale on the Grand Prix circuit. Blakeley’s win, over 15 seconds clear of the pack, established a new series record for the biggest winning margin in the championship’s history. 

Elite Motorsport’s Alisha Palmowski claimed an impressive double victory at Snetterton as the fight for this year’s GB4 Championship partnered by the BRDC tightened up on Sunday.
