Podium for Hedge in Porsche Carrera Cup

Callum Hedge has collected more points at the latest round of the 2022 Porsche Paynter Dixon Carrera Cup Australia at Sandown Raceway over the weekend.  Having qualified in 11th, the Kiwi driver finished second on the podium in the final race with an 11th and 5th placings in the first two races.

“Eleventh (Race 1) was all we had but we stayed out of trouble,” commented Hedge. “In Race 2 we started from 13th and again stayed out of trouble and moved through to fifth so a good spot to start for the final race in which we had a mega charge through to second. Stoked to end the weekend with a podium and good momentum heading to the next round at Bathurst.”

Aaron Love claimed back-to-back wins amidst a dramatic sixth round of the season at Sandown Raceway in Melbourne.  A pair of races produced remarkable racing and varied results as the two drivers first and second in the championship each suffered a non-finish in what was a dramatic day of racing.

Dylan O’Keeffe, who trailed leader Harri Jones by just 22-points following his Race 1 win, failed to finish the enduro cup race – while points leader Harri Jones was a non-finisher on Sunday afternoon in the weekend finale.

The Porsche Paynter Dixon Carrera Cup Australia Championship takes a well-earned break prior to the penultimate round of the championship at the Repco Bathurst 1000 this October 6-9.
