Birthday boy Will celebrates in style with Brands Hatch victory

The Ginetta Junior Championship racer, now in his second season in the series, took a magnificent win in the opening race on Saturday.

In a closely-fought opener, Tregurtha, in his HHC Motorsport prepared Ginetta, went wheel-to-wheel with Stuart Middleton and Dave Wooder before the Shenley Brook End ace made a move stick at Druids to take the chequered flag - his first in the series.

The second race proved to be even more close-fought than the opener.

Tregurtha, Middleton and Wooder once again finding themselves battling at the head of the field – Tregurtha briefly leading from pole position before his adversaries worked their way past.

He was set for a podium spot until the last lap, when he was edged out to cross the line in fifth place.

Overall though, it was a great weekend for the teenager.

Tregurtha said: “I am delighted to have picked up my first win in the very first race of the season.

“HHC Motorsport did a great job with the car and it was a shame that I couldn’t pick up another podium in race two on Sunday.

“But we had a great battle at the front and I think it was entertaining for the live ITV cameras.

“That result just makes me more determined to push for wins again at Donington in two weeks’ time.”
