Ginetta Racing Drivers Club+ Donington 2017

The Donington Decider for the British GT series weekend included the Ginetta Racing Drivers Club+ Donington 2017 rounds.  It’s impressive how many Ginetta racing series there are, and the British GT series support package includes two Ginetta events, the GT5 Challenge and the Ginetta Racing Drivers Club+.  The series is intended to be a progression from those participating in the Ginetta Racing Drivers Club, and most of those racing in the GRDC+ are graduates from the GRDC.  The Donington rounds were the finale of the GRDC+ 2017.

 

Qualifying on Saturday saw Phil Ingram take pole from Michael Crees with Tom Golding in third.  The first race saw Ingram and Crees hold on to those positions, with Jack Oliphant completing the podium.  The second race saw Crees and Oliphant move up a place each on the podium, and this time it was Rob Keogh who joined them on the podium.

The familiar names continued for the third race with Ingram, Crees and Keogh taking the honours.   The four drivers who shared the podium positions are also the four who take the top spots in the championship, with Crees the champion from Keogh and Ingram, and Oliphant finishing in fourth place.
