• AIMEE WATTS demonstrated impressive adaptability in her rookie Porsche Sprint Challenge season, running in provisional podium position during mixed conditions at Silverstone before securing a fourth-place finish in race two. Her strategic tire choice gamble in race one showed she’s not afraid to take calculated risks, even when circumstances beyond her control – like contact with another class competitor – cost her a potential strong result just one lap from the finish.
• The Clean Racing driver consistently battled in the top-5 throughout the weekend, qualifying fifth in the RS Am class and showing particular strength in wet conditions during testing. Her speed through Silverstone’s challenging first sector, especially at Copse corner, proved she has the technical skills to handle one of Britain’s most demanding circuits in a variety of conditions.
• With this fourth top-5 finish of the season, WATTS sits sixth in the RS Am championship standings heading into the final round at Brands Hatch. Her rookie campaign has been marked by consistent progress and smart racecraft, proving that women can immediately compete at the sharp end when given proper machinery and support – exactly what we love to see in a sport that too often overlooks female talent.
