Donington Park 27th /28th July – what a wash out. ! The final round of what in the end was just a four race series, was held over a weekend of torrential rain. Peter did what he needed to do, finishing 3rd (350), behind Phil Atkinson and Ant Hart to secure second in the championship, but it was far from fun.
Jean Paul Lecointe finished a creditable fourth to consolidate his status as 2019 ICGP champion, a position he thoroughly deserved, after a faultless series long performance.
In summary, the team aimed to treat 2019 as a learning year and then have a crack at being competitive in 2020, so second in the championship was definitely beyond expectations. However, in terms of motorcycle development and set-up we still have an awful long way to go……..the Ant Harts and Ian Simpsons are well ahead, but in sight!
A big thank you to Eric Saul for his efforts in creating and running this series, to our lead sponsor Roy Hood, our trade sponsors and our dedicated team. Well done to all.
Classic Bol d’Or is next, 20/21st September. Round 1 Friday night, round 2 Saturday morning.
