Kirkham Grammar School Fourth Year student, Sam Gornall, has enjoyed a very successful, if somewhat shortened 2020 kart season, in his first year in the 14-16 years Junior Class. Sam finished a very creditable fourth place against a grid of older drivers in the British Championships. This resulted in Sam being selected to represent Team GB in February at the Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Finals in Portimao. However, due to the pandemic, this event was cancelled.
Now that the pandemic restrictions are relaxing, the 2021 kart season has restarted and the race calendar has now been released for the British Championships. This year, Sam is the UK’s top seeded Junior driver.
Well done, Sam and good luck for the 2021 season!
