Caterham junior Seb Morris ended up victorious in the second Formula Renault 2.0 NEC race of the weekend.

After the Welsh driver narrowly managed to keep his first place after the start, a battle emerged between RSF-backed Ben Barnicoat and Lotus junior Callan O’Keeffe for second, which resulted in the karting graduate Barnicoat dropping down the field.

The race continued with O’Keeffe putting pressure on Morris, however, the order remained unchanged with Steijn Schothorst completing the podium.

AVF’s Matthew Graham recorded his best finish of the championship, followed by Jake Hughes, Ryan Tveter and Ukyo Sasahara.

Formula BMW Talent Cup champion Robin Hansson celebrated his first top ten finish with Stefan Riener and Jorge Cevallos rounding the top ten out.
