Campbell wins Carrera Cup Aus/Asia Pro race

Matt Campbell produced a lights-to-flag drive to win the combined Carrera Cup Australia/Carrera Cup Asia race for professional drivers at Sydney Motorsport Park.

After recording a clean sweep of the two Carrera Cup Australia championship races, the Queenslander produced another dominant display to see off the best drivers from both Australia and Asia.

Campbell faced a brief challenge from Carrera Cup Asia series star Maxime Jousse on the opening lap as the pair went side-by-side into the first corner.

However, the McElrea Racing driver quickly asserted his authority on the race by taking the lead at Turn 2.

Once ahead he produced a measured drive to the chequered flag, but was unable to relax with Nick McBride in hot pursuit.

Starting from fifth, McBride made light work of David Wall at the start before passing Carrera Cup Asia round winner Mitchell Gilbert and Jousse.

Despite showcasing impressive pace, he couldn’t launch a serious attack on Campbell as he fell 0.8s shy at the flag.

A storming run from seventh saw Alex Davison claim the final spot on the podium after making decisive moves on Gilbert and Jousse early in the race.

Ash Walsh ensured the top four positions were held by Carrera Cup Australia drivers, with Jousse the best Asian runner in fifth.

Dean Fiore came through to finish sixth ahead of the Malaysian-born Australian Gilbert, who had earlier won both Carrera Cup Asia championship races.

Austrian Carrera Cup Asia driver Martin Ragginger, Wall and Dylan O’Keefe completed the top 10.

Former Carrera Cup Australia champion Steven Richards could only manage 12th, while Carrera Cup Asia championship leader Nico Menzel finished in 17th position.

Duvashen Padayachee was the only retirement from the race, exiting the heat after seven laps.
