BRDC MEMBERS' PODIUM ROUNDUP 30-07-2018

In a fortnight that saw the BRDC formally celebrate its 90th anniversary over the blisteringly hot weekend of the Silverstone Classic, the motor racing headlines were grabbed by BRDC Members, SuperStars and Rising Stars as just short of 90 podium places were achieved by them. The total of podium positions earned by drivers associated with the BRDC this season now sits well over the 500 mark from a wide range of modern and historic categories, and with so many of those drivers now either leading their championships or within striking distance of the top spot, it is hoped that further stunning performances like those over the past two weeks will see championship honours being awarded at the end of the season. The Club would like to congratulate the following drivers on their recent podium successes:
