Following their first LMP1 win in Hungary last month, the Buckinghamshire based Beechdean Mansell Motorsport team are looking forward to competing in the season finale of the 2010 Le Mans Series on their home circuit at Silverstone on 11/12 September.

The boys from Brazil, Gabriel Dias and Adriano Buzaid, showed their European rivals the way to win Cooper Tires British F3 races at Snetterton, Dias securing victory for Hitech in the 20-minute sprint race and his countryman Buzaid winning the double-length feature race for Carlin, ahead of his team-mate and the newly crowned champion, Jean-Eric Vergne.

The Cooper Tires British F3 Series arrives at Snetterton this Bank Holiday weekend (29/30 August) for its penultimate outing of the season, and Kings Lynn's Alex Brundle is hoping to capitalise on his home advantage during the championships trip to Norfolk.

The champion may already have been crowned but there is still plenty to play for in next weekend’s Cooper Tires British F3 International races at the Snetterton circuit in Norfolk. Round 25 of the championship is scheduled for Sunday 29 August with a double helping of track action planned for Bank Holiday Monday.

Following on from snooker champion, Ronnie O'Sullivan getting behind the wheel of a VW Jetta, James ‘The Machine’ Wade, the world number three darts player, swapped his flights for spanners last weekend to be a guest mechanic working on the RAC Caddy Racer at Silverstone.

Jean-Eric Vergne crowned himself the 2010 Cooper Tires British F3 International Series Champion at Silverstone this afternoon in the best possible style - with a flamboyant 12th race victory of the season. He is the first French champion of British F3 and the third in successive years from the Carlin team.
