• AIMEE WATTS closed out her rookie Porsche Sprint Challenge campaign with a textbook display of consistency at Brands Hatch, securing sixth place in all three races while fighting tooth and nail for top-5 positions in the RS Am class. The Clean Racing driver showed she belonged among the frontrunners throughout the weekend, particularly excelling in the Grand Prix section of the circuit where her previous experience paid dividends. Her race craft shone brightest in race one where she executed a brilliant overtake on Jason Baker around the GP loop, then held him off by just a tenth of a second at the flag.
• The weekend showcased exactly why WATTS earned that breakthrough podium earlier in the season – her pace was there when it mattered, consistently matching or bettering the drivers ahead of her while maintaining the racecraft to defend when under pressure. In race three, she mounted a relentless charge on Dean Burden, closing to within a tenth of a second and setting personal best times while simultaneously fending off Baker’s advances from behind. That’s the kind of multi-front battle management that separates the real talents from the also-rans.
• What stands out most about WATTS’ debut campaign isn’t just the results – it’s how she adapted to one of Britain’s most competitive GT championships and consistently punched above her weight class. From setting fastest lap in her breakthrough race to showing wet weather pace that put her third-quickest in Friday practice, she’s proven she has the complete skillset. With a full season of data and racecraft under her belt, her 2026 return should be appointment viewing for anyone who appreciates drivers who maximize every opportunity.
