Double win for Curnow at Croft extends Championship lead (28 July 04)

Rounds 11 and 12 of the Formula BMW Championship took place at Croft circuit in North Yorkshire on 24th and 25th July. After another very impressive display, Ross Curnow came away with 2 victories to extend his lead in the rookie class Championship. 

In Race 1 Ross once again qualified as fastest rookie and an amazing 4th overall. He finished the race 7th overall and 1st rookie.

In Race 2 Ross qualified 7th overall after having a spin on new tyres in qualifying, and finished the race 10th overall and 1st rookie to win both races in his class. “This was despite a first corner incident which damaged the front wing causing me to lose front downforce resulting in understeer and front locking brakes” explained Curnow afterwards. 

Ross is now leading the rookie class by 31 points with only 4 meetings left. The next meeting is at Knockhill in Scotland on the 7th And 8th August.
