GRRL! SUMMARY:
- MORGAN KIDD and MAGGIE WEBSTER faced the classic motorsport test of resilience at Silverstone, getting wiped out in race one through no fault of their own when contact from Marco Ricci sent Kidd spinning and collected Webster in the aftermath. Instead of packing it in, these JRW Motorsport teammates showed exactly why we love watching drivers who refuse to quit – they came back swinging for the Sunday double-header.
- KIDD delivered the kind of performance that reminds you why she’s been climbing the championship ladder, charging from 15th to 9th in race two before unleashing a masterclass drive in race three. Starting 6th after the random draw, she immediately moved to 5th and spent the entire race battling at the sharp end, matching her season-best 4th place finish while posting the fastest lap on the penultimate tour – the kind of pace that keeps podium contenders honest.
- WEBSTER proved that consistency pays dividends, maintaining her perfect 100% finishing record while showing serious racecraft in her recovery drives. After fighting overheating issues in race two, she turned race three into her personal highlight reel – charging from the back of the pack after an early incident dropped her to 18th, then systematically picking off rivals to claim her Am class podium spot in 3rd, demonstrating the kind of never-give-up mentality that builds championship campaigns.
