Snetterton Round 4 – Ginetta Junior Championship
Coming into Snetterton, I knew it wasn’t going to be easy. The track is technical, the field is competitive, and this was always going to be a test of patience and focus. I came in prepared, but sometimes racing gives you a weekend that’s just a grind from start to finish.
Race 1 was exactly that. I couldn’t find the pace early on, and I had to fight just to hold my g
round. Nothing flowed, nothing came naturally, and I crossed the line P16. Not where I wanted to be.
Race 2 gave me a chance to fight back. The car felt slightly stronger, I settled into a rhythm, and I managed to climb up to P13. It wasn’t a headline finish, but it showed that persistence pays off.
Then came
Race 3, and it was the toughest one yet. A messy start, some mistakes on my side, and situations out of my control pushed me back. I finished P19, frustrated and knowing I had more in me than the result showed.
Snetterton was brutal. Not because of one single thing, but because the whole weekend just kept asking questions I couldn’t fully answer. But here’s the thing this is what builds me as a driver. I understood the car in many different areas, learned how it reacts when things aren’t perfect, and saw clearly where I need to improve.
I might be down after this round, but I will make my comeback.
