Boxster ace Lovell fights his way to brink of Autosport National Driver Rankings top 10

Lovell has been the driver to beat in the Boxster Cup this year and took his 2023 tally to 11 with his hat-trick at the Festival of Porsche event. Those victories have in turn sent him 11th in Autosport's winners' table, a rise of 18 places.

Despite relatively few club race meetings taking place last weekend, there was still quite a bit of shuffling in the rankings - but all of it occurred outside of the top 10.

Graham Fennymore has moved up to 12th with two victories of his own at Croft, which sealed him a second Historic Formula Ford 2000 title. They also enable him to move 10 spots up the leaderboard.

Titles were also decided at Donington Park at the Caterham 50th birthday Festival with the 270R crown going the way of Freddie Chiddicks after a close season-long battle with Charlie Lower.

Chiddicks emerged triumphant in the first two Leicestershire races, enough for him to seal the championship and sit out the finale. It also means he improves from 35th to 17th in the table.

Meanwhile, Fennymore was not the only historic single-seater driver to leave Yorkshire with another title to their name.

Callum Grant secured a third Historic FF1600 conquest with a brace of wins that also sent him rocketing 23 places upwards to 21st in the rankings.

Samuel Harrison has been the class of the Historic F3 field again this year and also ensured title glory with a Croft double, in turn taking last year's table-topper from outside the top 50 to 27th spot.
