A TEENAGE racing driver is setting his sights on Silverstone after a flying start to his driving season.

Cundall Manor School pupil Matt Greenwood and his team mate Sarah Moore are looking to build on their successful start to the season at Silverstone for the second-round of the Britcar Dunlop Endurance Championship on May 12.

Matt, 16, had a debut to remember at Rockingham Motor Speedway back in April, as he and Sarah guided the Tockwith Motorsports Ginetta G50 to first and third-place finishes on Matt’s first senior motor racing start.

Focus now turns towards Silverstone, and Matt is eager to get back in the car and keep the momentum going. He said: “I couldn’t have hoped for better start to the season, and I will be feeding off those results and confidence gained when I take to the track at Silverstone, home of one of the most historic race circuits.

“Sarah and I combined well; we’re a good team, and we will look to build on that rapport this weekend.”

He added: “Cramming it between school work and revision for my GCSEs, which begin this week, means I have endured some late nights – but I am totally committed.”
