After starting at the back of the grid, the TRICO Brand Ambassador and W-Series driver ended the weekend on a high in the TRICO-sponsored Tockwith Motorsports (TMS) Ginetta G50, as she and young team-mate, Moh Ritson, finished sixth in race two.

The weekend looked like it was going to be a frustrating one, having qualified well for race one (sixth), before sustaining differential damage during the early part of the race.

Some fantastic work by the TMS pit crew, however, ensured the car slotted back onto the track, with three laps remaining, to take the chequered flag.

The damage, though, meant Sarah started race two at the back of the grid; nevertheless, she drove a magnificent stint, moving right behind second-place, before handing over to Moh, as she explained: “I had nothing to lose, starting from the back of the grid, but I had a great start and managed to get the car up to fifth by the fifth lap.

“I enjoyed some great battles with the guys in-front and managed to get as high as second, before handing the car over to Moh, who did a great job of dealing with faster and slower cars on such a short circuit.”

Sarah thanked TRICO for its continued support and is eager to see the TRICO car earn a podium spot in the next round at Donington Park (1st June).

TRICO senior product and brand manager, Sam Robinson, said: “Sarah continues to impress with her speed and professionalism.

“Her comeback further-demonstrates what a fearless driver she is, a driver that never gives up and is capable of gaining a result in the most challenging of circumstances – we’re proud of her – and Moh, too, who is still only three races into his first senior season.”

On Sarah’s recent W-Series result, where she finished fifth in the opening race, Sam added: “Everyone at TRICO was cheering her on!

“To compete in the first all-female race series is a phenomenal achievement, and we’re all delighted for her. We can’t wait to see how the season progresses.”

Round two of the W-Series takes place at Zolder, Belgium, on Saturday (18th May), with live coverage on Channel 4 from 2:45pm.
