Rodren Vella racing at Silverston­e Internatio­nal circuit in the UK

-

On Sunday Rodren Vella is racing at Silverston­e Internatio­nal circuit in the United Kingdom, the home of the British Formula 1 Grand Prix.

Rodren will be taking part in the fifth Royal Purple Hot Hatch Championsh­ip round of two races. He is currently leading the championsh­ip with 110 points.

Phillip Wright is chasing Rodren in the championsh­ip with 64 points, having missed the first round.

At Cadwell Park circuit two weeks ago, Phillips' Honda Civic Type-R seemed stronger than Rodren's Honda Civic, so much so that Rodren finished second in the qualifying session and second in races one and two.

It remains to be seen whether Rodren will be able to challenge Phillip at the Silverston­e Internatio­nal Circuit.

The 750 Motor Club, which is promoting this championsh­ip will be offering live timing of the event through its website. The 15minute qualifying session is scheduled to start at 9.25 am. The first race is scheduled at 11.40 am, while the second race is scheduled for 16.20. All times are UK times. The two races will be 13 minutes plus one lap long each.

The 5.9 km long Silverston­e Internatio­nal circuit is not easy and Rodren will be doing his best to familiariz­e himself with it through another private testing session.

Rodren is hoping to consolidat­e his lead in the championsh­ip in the next round. If he continues to place in the second position in all the remaining races, he will still manage to collect the title.
