Tockwith Motorsport's Cassey Watson made her Donington outing difficult last weekend when an uncharacteristic 1st lap trip into the gravel trap left her with a damaged front anti-roll bar on her Ginetta Junior making for extreme understeer for her qualifying attempts.

Despite setting competitive sector times during qualifying Cassey was unable to string together a quick lap from the ill handling car and had to settle for 13th on the grid.

With the car repaired for Sunday's two races Cassey knew she had to get on with the job quickly with only 9 laps of racing to be had, infront of the live TV cameras. By lap 3 Cassey was 6th and just one lap later 4th and in a side by side battle with championship leader Dino Zamparelli for a podium position. Unfortunately while Zamparelli went on to catch and pass the leaders for victory Cassey was hit from behind entering McLeans and put into a spin dropping her back down to 14th. However Cassey again set about a comeback, lapping quicker than everyone except the winner she caught up and passed 4 cars and by the end had caught up with the battle for 6th but had to settle for 10th.

Race 2 took on a very similar feel but this time Cassey was an astonishing 5th by the end of lap 1 on the tail of a break away front pack. However a 3 car accident on the exit of Redgate saw Ashley Craig on his roof and the safety car deployed, bunching the field back up. On the restart Cassey found herself in a tough 4 car battle for 5th finally ending the race 6th.

Cassey said, "It seems daft to be disapointed at the end of such a promising day, but the results could have been so much better I am certain I could have had two podiums there if things had fallen slightly differently. However I have to apologise to the team for my mistake yesterday, they have worked so hard to get this car right after a difficult start to the season and now we definately have the car to challenge."

The RDA student now moves on to Thruxton lieing 6th in the championship.
