GRRL! SUMMARY:
- LYDIA WALMSLEY showcased her rookie season momentum at Knockhill with back-to-back podium finishes, starting with a third-place result in race one after qualifying second. Her consistent pace kept her in contention throughout the weekend as she built on her previous wins at Brands Hatch and Oulton Park, maintaining her impressive 100% podium record through nine races.
- The second race delivered WALMSLEY’s strongest performance of the weekend, where she strategically capitalized on Harrison Cavers’ track limits penalties to claim second place. Despite initially dropping to third at the start, her relentless pressure and consistency paid dividends when Cavers collected ten seconds in penalties, promoting the Graves Motorsport driver to the runner-up spot.
- Race three ended in disappointment for WALMSLEY when a technical issue forced her retirement on the penultimate lap while running third. The DNF was particularly frustrating given her strong pace throughout the weekend and ability to remain competitive with debutant Cavers, who had been the primary challenge to her podium aspirations across all three races at the Scottish circuit.
