For all the impressive drives during his domination of British Formula 4 last year, Alex Dunne never scored a win quite like one Louis Sharp achieved at Donington Park last weekend. Starting 20th on the fully reversed grid for race two, Sharp’s expectations were low. Yet he kept his head in tricky wet conditions and claimed a remarkable victory.
The Rodin Carlin driver admitted he was “very lucky” to carve through the pack so successfully, his progress aided by a safety car – caused by polesitter Isaac Barashi being beached at the Old Hairpin – bunching the field, but he had already climbed to fifth by this point.
