Abbie Eaton Instagram – Great progress made at Brands Hatch last weekend.
Improvement in qualifying from Donington with a P5 in class only 4 tenths off pole, it’s such an insanely close grid! 🤯
Race 1, the Donington Park race rerun we brought the car home P5 in Pro/Am.
Race 2 I had great pace and battled hard for P3 and my first podium in Porsche Carrera Cup, only to have a jump start penalty handed out after which dropped me to P17 overall 😫 A shame but the pace and position on track wasn’t gained on lap one so I’m still happy with my pace.
Race 3 was unfortunately affected due to starting where I ended Race 2 with the penalty, down in P17 overall! But was again pleased with my progress and battled for P3 Pro/Am podium once more before contact with another driver bent my steering and halted progress.
All in all more positives than negatives from the weekend, feeling good in the car and still learning a huge amount of how to get the most out of the Carrera Cup!
Thruxton is next in 4 weeks… completely different kind of track to Brands Indy 😅 but hoping to get to grips with what’ll be my first ever race at Thruxton!
As always, a big thanks to you all for coming to say hello. Thanks to the @rebelleomotorsport team and @claphamnorth guests who were able to join me for the weekend, and thanks to @teamparkerracing for a faultless car.
