ADAC German Formula 4 

Joey Mawson recorded his seventh win of the season as he maintained his lead in the ADAC German Formula 4 Championship.

The Sydney racer kicked off the weekend by following title rival Mick Schumacher, the son of Formula 1 legend Michael, home in the opening heat at the Nurburgring.

However, Mawson showed his class in the second race as he took victory despite contact with Schumacher.

Schumacher tried an ambitious move for the lead on Mawson which forced the Australian wide.

Stewards issued Schumacher with a drive-through penalty for the clash which allowed Mawson to take the flag from Juri Vips and Nicklas Nielsen.

Mawson fought his way to fifth from ninth on the grid in the final race before he was issued with a post-race 30 second penalty.

Officials deemed the Van Amersfoort Racing driver had used part of the pit lane entry to make a pass and subsequently relegated him to 28th.

Thomas Preining claimed the victory from Schumacher and Vips.

Despite the penalty, Mawson has maintained his 46 point lead over Schumacher as the series heads to Zandvoort from August 19-21

Australian Thomas Randle remains third in the BRDC British Formula 3 standings after three top 10 finishes at Snetterton.

Ahmed was sent spinning into the infield before his car dug into the ground and rolled. He emerged from the wreckage unscathed.

Randle started from third in the second race but lost a position to Harrison Scott at the start where he remained until the chequered flag.

The young Aussie ended the weekend with a strong drive from eighth to sixth.

The Chevrolet of Tom Coronel finished second while Rob Huff brought his Honda home in third. The pair survived post-race investigations for jumping the start.

Lopez leads the championship standings by 117 points from Honda’s Tiago Monteiro ahead of the next round at Japan’s Motegi circuit from September 3-4.

Timmy Hansen scored his maiden FIA World Rallycross Championship win at Canada’s Grand Prix De Trois-Rivieres.

Hansen took full advantage of the promotion by going on to win the final by 1.1s from Andreas Bakkerud (Ford) and Johann Kristoffersson (Volkswagen).

Reigning champion Peter Solberg has moved to the top of the standings after coming home in fifth.
