2008 British Formula Renault - season discussion thread

**gomick** · 31 Mar 2008, 09:39 (Ref:2165962)

Rounds 1 & 2 where at Brands Hatch (Indy).

Riki Christodoulou won race 1 from "aussie" Joshua Scott

. In race 2, Adam Christodoulou won...

kerrmanningjarv · 31 Mar 2008, 13:26 (Ref:2166155)

I was there in person... both Christodoulou's looked impressive, as did Ryuji Yamamoto, Joshua Scott, Scott Jenkins and Alex Sims (despite stalling on the grid from pole on race 1).

Alex K · 31 Mar 2008, 22:24 (Ref:2166548)

IMO, it's between Christos and Sims, with Sims having the upper hand. My prediction is based on testing and results of first event. I really can't see anyone who can fight them three... maybe Buzaid, but I doubt. It's gonna be awsome season, can't wait next meeting.

N.A-D.R · 1 Apr 2008, 11:27 (Ref:2166888)

good result for Scott for his first race in FR.

what moderater/host changed this topic's title by adding "opening rounds" ???

- change it back!
if i wanted "opening rounds" added to it i would've put it in the title...

**chunterer** · 4 Apr 2008, 08:55 (Ref:2169303)

Gomick, the thread starts off about the opening rounds at Brands and not asking about the whole season prospects?

I'll change it back if you like but why not open another one if you would like to have a more general dicsussion about the season ahead?

The more threads opened that encourage discussion the better in my book.

Cheers

What happened to Hillspeed's entries? As far as I knew they were going to run Singleton and Alex Morgan this season...

kerrmanningjarv · 20 Apr 2008, 07:03 (Ref:2181798)

Both drivers were snapped up by teams competing in Europe

**gomick** · 18 May 2008, 00:05 (Ref:2205068)

**chunterer** · 23 May 2008, 07:45 (Ref:2209591)

So is it too simplistic to say that it's a battle between the Cousins all year long?

**gomick** · 23 May 2008, 08:03 (Ref:2209599)

no, i dont think so, though with a bit of luck Adriano Buzaid can stick with them & a couple of other youngsters can challenge for the odd win...

**chunterer** · 23 May 2008, 11:07 (Ref:2209711)

Is that Alvaro Buzaid's son by any chance?

kerrmanningjarv · 24 May 2008, 08:46 (Ref:2210229)

^ Adriano Buzaid's dad raced in the UK in the 1980s apparently, but don't know what his first name was.

**chunterer** · 24 May 2008, 09:04 (Ref:2210240)

Must be same guy then. Alvaro Buzaid was a front runner in British Formula Ford in 1983-85 IIRC then money ran out.

**gomick** · 1 Jun 2008, 00:56 (Ref:2216212)

Rounds 9 & 10 are at Croft this weekend... Adam Christodoulou has pole for race 1 from Alexander Sims & cousin Riki. Riki has pole for race 2 from Sims & Adriano Buzaid...

Joshua Scott will start both races well back in the pack

2007 Finnish F3 Championship runner-up Jesse Krohn will drive a Mark Burdett Motorsport car this weekend in Silverstone. He'll possibly do the rest of the UK FR2.0 season with the team.

**chunterer** · 6 Jun 2008, 09:28 (Ref:2221137)

I'm sticking the thread for this weekend events as it's the big British Renault fest!!

Cheers

kerrmanningjarv · 8 Jun 2008, 05:28 (Ref:2222290)

I think we'll see at least 1 Christo win today... possibly 2. Although I would love to see Buzaid win - the Christo domination is starting to get boring!

Valker · 8 Jun 2008, 09:23 (Ref:2222371)

Any idea where are the results of morning race?

**chunterer** · 8 Jun 2008, 09:56 (Ref:2222391)

Well Buzaid was on pole (from Calado?), with the 2 Christodoulou's on the 2nd row, be interesting to learn how things went......

**gomick** · 10 Jun 2008, 09:39 (Ref:2224588)

Great weekend for Adriano Buzaid - cant ask for more than 2 poles & 2 race wins in front of the World Series Teams
