The season opener at Brands Hatch was a test of both patience and adaptability. Rain during qualifying left the circuit slick and unpredictable, but Charlie kept his composure to secure a solid grid position for the first race.

Race one saw him battle in the thick of the midfield. A quick start helped him move up several places, and despite heavy pressure from faster cars behind, he defended superbly to finish inside the top 5.

In race two, the track began to dry, but conditions were still tricky. Charlie showed impressive consistency, stringing together clean laps while others around him struggled for grip. His ability to adapt quickly to changing conditions earned praise across the paddock.

Silverstone marked the midpoint of the season and provided one of Charlie’s strongest showings yet. A clean qualifying session placed him firmly in the mix.

During the race, Charlie’s pace was relentless. Lap after lap, he matched the times of the frontrunners, closing the gap and demonstrating his growing confidence.

His ability to handle pressure when defending against faster cars was a key takeaway, further underlining his progress as a rookie.
