FOX PAIR KEEP WIN
Fox McLaren pair Nick Halstead and Jamie Stanley have kept their late-July maiden British GT race win at Spa-Francorchamps after winning their appeal against a qualifying penalty.
The Fox duo won on the road but they, along with the seventhplaced Paddock McLaren, raced under appeal following a qualifying overboosting sanction. The result was finalised last weekend following a National Court ruling on the teams’ joint appeal. The ruling’s details were to follow as MN went to press.
The ruling also brought clarity to last weekend’s Brands Hatch British GT race result and the
GT3 title battle, as championship points and Brands’ success penalties depended on the ruling.
A Fox statement said: “The entire team is pleased to consider the matter closed so that we may focus fully on trying to add more victories.”
