Mark Cole shot Dafyd Richards’s Lotus 11, liveried per the period Corgi model, ahead in Sunday’s Royal Automobile Club Woodcote/Stirling Moss Trophy Pre-’61 sportscar race, among the highlights of Motor Racing Legends’ seasonal finale on Silverstone’s Historic Grand Prix circuit. If the first-year rookie owner/driver was nervous, it didn’t show, as he coolly completed a consummate 58-second victory – “an emotional journey” – over Ben Adams’s Lola Mk1. “Dafyd was my Porsche race engineer in 2002, so being here for him was special,” said Cole.
