#F4AU Sandown - Round Five - Saturday Wrap

Team BRM’s Will Brown has claimed two wins from two races at Sandown for Round Five of the 2016 CAMS Jayco Australian Formula 4 Championship.

Having won a Toyota 86 Series race prior to today’s 2nd Formula 4 race, momentum was beneficial to the Toowoomba pilot’s charge up to the lead.

“Yeah pretty exciting, we’ve obviously got double duties this weekend,” Brown said.

“We’ve taken both wins today in both categories, so looking forward to the day. I got another 86 race coming up so you never know what could happen. We’ll press on and try to get another one!”

AGI Sport’s Nick Rowe lead much of the first portion of Race Two, pulling out a mighty gap after an impressive opening lap. However Rowe had to be content with third place come the finish line, with Josh Denton pulling off a brilliant move down at Dandenong Road in the final laps of the race.

“Yeah mate started P1 and got a good start, got to the lead, got to a bit of a gap,” Rowe said.

“I can’t thank the boys at AGI Sport enough, they’re awesome at setting up cars, good blokes. I can’t thank SCT Logistics for all their support on the race track and off the race track.”

Denton was buzzing after claiming his best result of the season, extending his Burson Auto Parts Rookie of the Year championship lead.

“It was a very exciting race. The start wasn’t too good but I fought my way back and made some pretty good moves down onto Dandenong Road against Jordan [Love] and Nick Rowe on the last lap,” Denton said.

“That was pretty scary, but I managed to pull it off! It was a good race in the end.

“Since the start of the year I’ve definitely made a lot of improvements. I’m feeling pretty excited going into the next race and going into the last round at Gold Coast.”

JRD’s Tyler Everingham had started the race from the front row, and initially got the jump over U Race It Pole Position sitter Nick Rowe.

Unfortunately the Dubbo driver out-braked himself into Turn One, but still produced some impressive overtaking manoeuvres throughout the race to eventually cross the line in 7th.

“It was just a bit of fun going around the outside! Thought I would give it a go,”

Everingham said.

“It was a little bit slippery on the rubber but it held.”

DREAM Motorsport’s Simon Fallon certainly created some impressive images for television, getting some air into Turn One towards the end of the race. The young Victorian took solace though in feeling extra speed aboard his CoolDrive supported Formula 4.

“At least we found some pace!” Fallon said.

“Had a bit of fun out there still. This year’s all about experience, it doesn’t matter too much we’ll take it as a positive and move on.”

Race Two was raced in honour of Australian Formula 3 and V8 Ute racer Luke Spalding, who passed away after a long battle with cancer. The entire Formula 4 grid wore #WeFlyWith23 decals in tribute to the 18-year-old.

“I just want to send a shoutout to Luke Spalding who unfortunately lost his life with cancer,” Nick Rowe said.

“I hope his family and everyone else involved with him is going alright.”

The CAMS Jayco Australian Formula 4 Championship community wishes to extend its condolences to Luke Spalding's family, friends and colleagues.

The final 13-lap dash, Race Three, for the CAMS Jayco Australian Formula 4 Championship commences at 9:05am tomorrow.
