BDC Round 1

IT BEGINS WITH SOME SUN

Under the amazing sunshine that graced the media team at Teesside on an early weekend in March was simply glorious, Carrying on from a fantastic 2021 season it all started with some burning sun and burning @Zestinouk Tires.

As ever i attended the media brief in the morning to find out the layout and photography areas early on Saturday ready for the weekend of action, Similar layout to the final round last year made it quite a quick brief and the excitement grew for the first car to attack the circuit in the new year.

Pro2 practice on Saturday morning with Pro Practice in the afternoon then onto competition with full day of pro in Sunday is the usual timetable for the British Drift Championship weekends and the action is relentless. So much fun getting out again and shooting fast loud action.

The competition this year was closer and hotter than ever with controlled tires and all competitors stepping up there game especially the Scottish lads in the field which was my main focus of course while shooting for Scottish Media publications it always makes it more intense when the battles are so close.

As you can see the action is spectacular and to name a few stand out drivers for the weekend Massive well done to Chrissy Nailen in the BMW M3 for winning Pro 2 round 1 outright after some amazing battles with Diarmuid Canavan and in 3rd place was Mark Chapman in the BMW 3 Series Tourer and to Aurimas Vaskelis in his beautiful BMW M3 E30 who beat Robbie Burgoyne to win the final in Pro on Sunday and a 3rd place to Dylan Garvey who had of the best looking cars on track over the weekend.

What a fantastic start to 2022 and thats only beginning. Very much looking forward to getting back out and shooting some of the best motorsport in the UK.
