Official Report: MSA Formula Ford Championship of Great Britain at Snetterton
Championship leader James Cole managed to double his points advantage at Snetterton at the weekend, collecting a brace of podium finishes from the three Norfolk rounds. The race victories belonged however to 16-year-old Jordi Cunill, who claimed his maiden win, and to Josef Newgarden, who twice triumphed for the JTR team.
“This win means a lot to me,” said Cunill. “It’s my first in a single-seater. It’s very exciting for me, especially as I have achieved it with my new team. We’ve worked very hard for this and now it has all worked out right. It gives me a lot of confidence going forward to Donington.”
