750MC HOT HATCH CHAMPIONSHIP: DON’T DREAM IT’S OVAL
UK national motorsport is showing resilience in 2020’s most trying circumstances. For all the Covid-19 disruption, there is also, for now at least, a common pent-up desire to go racing, manifested in healthy grids.
The 750 Motor Club’s Hot Hatch championship is experiencing something similar. Its total of new drivers registered for this year is in double figures. But the reasons for its upswing have caught even the organising club on the hop.
The 750MC’s James Winstanley tells Motorsport News: “There’s been a real mixed bag this year of all sorts of different new cars and new drivers. Normally with any 750 formula, one of us will have spoken to somebody on the phone a couple of times over winter or one of us will have been [having a] longstanding email conversation, someone’s come along to a race meeting last year and we know we’ve got their eye on it, so you’re not normally too surprised by the list
