LYDIA WALMSLEY Shines in RS Pro Debut Despite Limited Testing Time

April 21, 2026

• LYDIA WALMSLEY delivered impressive RS Pro debut at Donington, charging from 13th to sixth in race one despite minimal testing. Emerged as highest-placed Porsche Talent Pool driver in championship standings after stepping up from CS Pro vice-champion.
• Hard-charging opener saw WALMSLEY move through field methodically, overtaking Dan Lewis and fellow Talent Pool drivers Max Watt and James Seale. Capitalized on incidents ahead to secure strong points haul in more powerful, aerodynamically-enhanced machinery.
• Race two netted tenth after five-second track limits penalty dropped WALMSLEY from eighth. Close midfield battles with Reece Somerfield and Seale defined tight competition throughout twenty-minute sprint, demonstrating adaptability in new Clean Racing machine.
• Weekend ended prematurely when contact with Seale in race three sent both into tyre barrier. Incident occurred under pressure from WALMSLEY who showed stronger pace after safety car restart, highlighting competitive potential despite stepped-up competition challenges.
