➲ The SASS Championship is
going down to the wire
The Midas South African Single-Seaters (SASS) Championship will be determined at what promises to
be a nail biting finale at Zwartkops Raceway on November 1st.
N
cholas van Weely (87 - Anglorand)
and Robert Wolk (1 - Midas /
Chemical Logistics / ATE) have
been in a dogfight for the title, and enter
the final round on identical championship
points.
Wolk started race one at the back of the
Wolk took the chequered flag in the last
race in Killarney, with Van Weely crossing
the line in second place. It was a case
of vice versa in race two, with Wolk’s
Formula Volkswagen incurring a puncture,
which provided Van Weely with all the
opportunity he needed to claim the spoils.
The Midas Formula 1600 series saw Scott
Temple (3 - Investchem) win race one in
an event that saw hard racing for the lead
with both Bevan Williams (36 - Rightway
Auto-Electrical) and Keegan Campos (02
- Hollard Insurance) fighting for their share
of the track.
Of the three, it was Campos who was the
most successful, taking the chequered
flag in race two with Williams taking
second and Temple taking the last step on
the podium. Temple still claimed overall
victory for the day and he enters the final
round with a 10 point advantage in the
title fight.
Williams’ result in the Cape sees him
move into third place in the championship,
just two points ahead of Graham Hepburn
(04 - Suburban Bodyshop). Hepburn is
unlikely to let this situation rest as is, so
the fight for third in the Midas Formula
1600s is likely to also be a tense affair at
the final round.
