HARRISON Scott is taking the 2014 Dunlop MSA Formula Ford Championship of Great Britain down to the wire.

Falcon Motorsport driver Scott, from Althorne, came away from rounds 25, 26 and 27 of the 2014 Dunlop MSA Formula Ford Championship of Great Britain tied on points at the top of the leader board following two second-place podium finishes at Silverstone last weekend.

Championship rival Jayde Kruger (JTR) clawed back vital points in his title hunt by winning race one (round 25) of the weekend on Saturday afternoon.

In the traditional reverse-grid for race two early on Sunday morning, the title protagonists made contact on the opening lap causing Harrison to spin to the back of the field.

In front of a bumper Silverstone BTCC crowd, which tipped 32,000 fans, Scott was clearly disappointed with his ultimate P8 result, but the clerk of the course deemed the coming together with Kruger a ‘racing incident’, so no action was taken.

The final Formula Ford race of the weekend provided all the nail-biting drama necessary to ensure that the championship title will go down to the wire and be decided at the season finale in Brands Hatch next month.

Kruger, who had achieved double pole, led round 27 all the way to chequered flag, with Harrison snatching P2 from Sutton at Copse on lap two.

Thereafter Harrison maintained the gap between himself and the leader at less than a second up to mid-race distance.

They were separated by 1.6 seconds at the chequered flag, with Harrison also setting the fastest lap of the race – a 55.898 seconds/ 105.65mph.

Harrison and Kruger are now level on 651 points after 27 races and with just three remaining in the 2014 Formula Ford Championship of Great Britain.

Scott said: “Now we’re level on points there is everything to play for at Brands Hatch.

“It’s like starting the championship all over again and means we go into the final round with everything to play for.”
