AUTOSPORT's title hopes hit the barriers
Ben Anderson's racing year is not working out as hoped. In fact, the last month has yielded a catalogue of woes.
This season is not going to plan.
It was meant to be the year of the glorious championship charge, the culmination of everything we've strived to achieve since joining Formula Vee in 2009.
Three rounds in and we've suffered two broken engines, I've crashed three times (four if you count the Ariel Atom Cup, but more on that later), we haven't won a race, and I'm not even inside the top six in the standings.
