A radical new sim championship that challenges drivers to compete in eight different types of machinery – from open wheelers to tin tops – began with a one-hour GT3 endurance race at Donington Park on 17th March.

The opening round of the eight-race, eight-week British Sim Racing Cup was won by Crofton Woodhatch with a composed performance that saw him get a jump on eventual second-place finisher Gareth Higgins in the pits and take a controlled run to the finish.

Woodhatch said:“ I wasn’ t sure what to expect coming into it. I don’ t drive GTs much, so I wasn’ t sure what the pace was going to be. I actually fuelled way too much in the pit stop so I should have been a few more seconds ahead.”

The thirty drivers will have to adapt to radically different cars at each round and continues with two F4 sprint races at Snetterton, MX-5s at Cadwell, FF1600s at Knockhill, and then GT4s at Oulton Park. A 90-minute Super Formula endurance race at Silverstone, and two Touring Car sprints at Thruxton, take the season towards its conclusion, with a Porsche Cup finale deciding the title at Brands Hatch on 5th May.
