Jerome De Sadeleer was on the podium for all three Radical Challenge races at Snetterton, crowning a successful weekend with victory in the final race.
The 360 Racing pair of De Sadeleer and Jason Rishover both felt they could have done better after the wet qualifying session. “It was a bit of a washout, as I need to build more experience in the rain and didn’t really get what I felt was a fast lap,” said De Sadeleer after setting the second fastest time in the session, but 2.4 seconds off pole.
“I am getting there, but I expected to improve more during the session. It was very slippery though,” Rishover added after qualifying seventh.
It had dried out for the race and it was De Sadeleer that made the best of the start, leading into Riches as Dominik Jackson and Marcus Clutton went side by side for second.
De Sadeleer kept his healthy lead until the pitstop window opened, while having been sixth for the first four laps, Rishover succumbed to pressure from Brian Murphy, before both moved up when Brian Caudwell pitted.
With the stops completed De Sadeleer was in fourth and hunting down Jac Constable. After a brief safety car intervention Jackson had contact with Constable who then spun, leaving De Sadeleer a clear second.
Clutton had no success penalty to serve at the stop and proved uncatchable, while De Sadeleer retained a solid second, over three seconds clear of Jackson.
