Pukekohe teenager Liam Lawson has one hand on the New Zealand Formula 1600 Championship title heading to the final round this coming weekend at the NZ Grand Prix meeting at Manfeild Park in Feilding. Three race wins and fastest lap in qualifying at the Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park in Taupo over the weekend allowed the 14-year-old to maximise his points from the fourth round of the series. With just three races and a maximum of 121 points on offer, Lawson (Mygale SJ08a) has a 110 point lead over nearest rival Christchurch’s Michael Collins (Van Diemen RF91). Southland’s Jordan Michels (Mygale SJ13) has moved up to third overall from Riverton’s Ethan Anderson (Van Diemen RF93 Stealth).
