Maximumgroup.net VAG Trophy – Donington

Motorsport Blog

The second round of the 2016 maximumgroup.net VAG Trophy thundered into Donington Park at the weekend. With 33 cars all fighting for glory, These driver onboard videos show that the VAG Trophy is just as healthy and as racey as ever before. Just watch some of this action!

Race 1

Richard O’Dwyer had the slight issue of having no brakes at the chicane which resulted in a dramatic roll.

Race 2

Starting from the back of the pack for race 2, Richard certainly had the best view of the mayhem ahead of him!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qGggFgt65w

Richard was also involved in a nice wheel to wheel fight with Rich Marshall #55.  You can almost hear Murray Walker screaming about this scrap!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTiRg5tUo2w

Race 3 – Darron Lewis

This was Darron Lewis’ view from the start of Race 3

And even Darron had a little moment warming his tyres up, he should be in goal for England with saves like that!

Piers Prior hopes to be racing in MSA Formula at Brands Hatch

Motorsport Blog

On Monday’s #DownforceDebrief show, Driver Piers Prior revealed how he will be travelling to Brands Hatch this weekend for the opening round of the 2016 MSA Formula championship and how he hopes to be racing too. 68:19

In an exchange with the host about the first round of the season he said “I’m going, just whether I’m driving or not is not confirmed yet” and Piers confirmed he’ll be taking his helmet, just in case he gets the call.  84:28

If Piers does get nod, it’s widely expected that he will be racing with Falcon Motorsport for whom he recently tested at the media day at Rockingham. He would also be racing in a rich field of talent which includes Sennan Fielding, Jack Butel, Jamie Caroline, Ross Martin, James Pull and the 2014 Downforce Radio Teenage Racer of the Year award winner Alex Quinn.

Here is Piers in an MSA Formula car, testing for Falcon Motorsport recently.
