GRRL! SUMMARY:
- SHERRIE-ANN POWELL delivered a breakthrough performance at Donington Park, securing her first-ever top-10 finish with ninth place in the final race while consistently running in career-best positions throughout the weekend. Starting from 14th in qualifying, she showed remarkable progress from her rookie 2024 season where she finished 19th overall, proving she’s ready to challenge the established order in her second JSCC campaign.
- The teenager racer demonstrated impressive adaptability by excelling in both wet and dry conditions at a completely new circuit. POWELL grabbed 11th place finishes in both wet races, making confident starts and immediately gaining positions while engaging in fantastic wheel-to-wheel battles with drivers like Leon Holly, consistently setting personal best lap times that showed her growing confidence and racecraft.
- POWELL’s weekend crescendoed with a ninth-place finish in the dry final race, where she moved up from 13th on the grid and capitalized on others’ mistakes while maintaining strong pace. Her ability to make excellent restarts after safety car periods and consistently challenge for top-10 positions signals a major step forward from her promising but lower-finishing rookie season, setting up an exciting campaign as the series heads to Brands Hatch.
