SuperChamps Season One – The Finale

SuperChamps Season One – The Finale

Sunday saw the curtain fall on another fiercely competitive season of SuperChamps at Daytona Sandown Park. Across both DMAX and SODI classes, the final round delivered all the drama, pace, and unpredictability we’ve come to expect from this standout championship series. From emerging young stars to seasoned Daytona names chasing final-round glory, the stakes couldn’t have been higher.

In the DMAX Lightweights, the championship fight came down to five potential title contenders. While Charlie Foster was forced to miss the final round due to a medical issue, his incredible form earlier in the season, including two perfect scores, gave him just enough of an edge, even after drop rounds were applied. The newly crowned Thursday Night League champion has done it again, proving his dominance in Daytona’s most competitive machinery.

Behind him, it was a high-stakes showdown. Thomas Williams rose to the occasion with a brilliant performance, taking wins in both Heat 1 and the Final, and a third place in Heat 2, to secure second place overall in the championship. His brother Adam Palmer, as well as Yaseen Khan and Ellis McKenzie, were also in the title hunt, and it was McKenzie’s consistency that earned him a place on the season podium in third.

Heat 1 saw Williams edge out Max Miller by just 0.043 seconds, with Palmer completing the top three. In the Heavyweights, it was business as usual for Henry Lopes-Gracey, who had already sealed the title prior to Round 8. Still, he wasn’t slowing down, taking the win ahead of Ross Sandwell and William Tidnam, who was promoted after Tom Brown received a contact penalty.

Heat 2 was led early on by McKenzie, before George Lawlor made a decisive move on lap 7 to take the win. Williams made further ground in his title push, snatching third after an exciting battle with Palmer. Lopes-Gracey again held off Kieran Hyde-Moody for another Heavyweight class victory, with Sandwell taking third despite a penalty.

The final race of the season saw the front row shared by championship chasers Williams and Palmer. McKenzie got the best launch off the second row and slotted into second, with Lawlor quickly moving into third. Williams would check out, taking a dominant win by over 8 seconds, sealing his perfect day and second in the standings. McKenzie held on to second, with Lawlor just behind in third.

In the Heavyweights, Lopes-Gracey made it a clean sweep, taking his third win of the day and completing a truly dominant season. Tidnam finished a comfortable second, ahead of Sandwell in third. Fastest laps went to Williams (46.896) and Lopes-Gracey (47.336), underscoring their form on the day.

The SODI Lightweight class came into the final round with just 12 points separating the top three: James Callan, George Beauchamp, and Jamie Riches. The grid was packed with talent all season long, names like Harry Pickles, Fin Ions, and Soloman Adenji all scoring strongly, but it would come down to these three in a tightly fought finale.

Heat 1 featured early chaos and non-stop lead changes. In the end, Oskar Machowiak came out on top after penalties were applied, with Abhay Parmar and Jamie Riches completing the podium. In the Heavyweights, Tom Brown took a commanding win, followed by Sam Roy and Malachy Prakesh.

In Heat 2, the reverse grid brought drama. Callan started from pole and never looked back, taking a dominant win by over 6 seconds. Ashton Wooglar and Caesar Chen rounded out the podium after a fierce midfield fight. In the Heavyweights, Prakesh came out on top after a battle with Roy.

The final race was another tactical masterclass from Callan, who worked his way through a chaotic opening few laps to take the win by over 6 seconds once again. But it wasn’t enough. With championship points tallied and drops applied, Jamie Riches, who had missed the opening two rounds, sealed the Lightweight title thanks to an incredibly consistent campaign.

Sam Roy made no mistake in the Heavyweights. With a strong 23-point lead entering the round, he sealed the title in style with another dominant win in the final.

It’s been a landmark SuperChamps season at Daytona Sandown Park, one defined by breakout performances, nail-biting battles, and standout sportsmanship across all four classes. From Foster’s DMAX double to Roy’s SODI dominance, and Riches’ remarkable title fightback, every round delivered unforgettable racing.

We’d like to thank all the drivers, teams, and supporters for being part of a truly special season.

Season 2 kicks off on September 14th, and with rivalries reignited and titles on the line once more, we can’t wait to see you back on track.

Daytona Tamworth

The first SuperChamps series of 2025 at Daytona Tamworth has been defined by one word: consistency. Across all classes, drivers turned up round after round, producing thrilling racing, rapid lap times, and fierce championship battles. From grassroots graduates to returning champions, the depth of talent has been remarkable, and the finale delivered everything you could hope for.

In the N35-ST Lightweights, this season marked a changing of the guard, with former Inkart stars stepping into the senior spotlight. Zachary Smith and Harry Fitch emerged as standout title contenders, bringing their rivalry down to the wire. Smith had a near-perfect final round, topping the points in the heats and winning the final after a fantastic battle with fellow Inkart graduate Joseph Smith. Despite this heroic drive, the deficit was just too much, and Fitch claimed the championship title thanks to his consistent performance across earlier rounds.

Joseph Smith took a well-earned second place in the final, with Theo Laverty rounding off the podium after a nail-biting scrap with Rhys Barker. Over the course of the season, Laverty had led the standings with his reliable form, while Barker impressed with his stamina and dual-class efforts across both N35 and DMAX.

This seasons N35-ST Heavyweight class was one of the most competitive in recent memory, with a consistently large field and a high level of racing. Ben Paines was the early-season star, opening with three consecutive perfect scores. However, two missed rounds and a tough middle stint dented his title charge. The championship fight came down to Kieran Bryant, the points leader going into the final round, and Anthony French, who despite missing a round, stormed back with a maximum score in Round Five and another strong showing in the finale.

Will Kenny made a late-season statement by winning the final from pole, holding off Saul Gregory and debutant Adam Brown, who took a sensational P2 on his first appearance. In the end, it was Ben Paines who clinched the championship, edging French by just 14 points, with Kenny narrowly missing out on second overall by three points. Special credit also goes to regular front-runners Gregory, Bryant, and Sam Butters, who each featured on the podium during the season.

The DMAX Lightweight class was a story of two titans: Luke Dodman and Joseph Simcock. After a season-long duel, it all came down to the final round. Dodman struck first, topping the heats and winning the final after fending off intense pressure from Simcock throughout. Despite finishing second on the day, Simcock’s early-season dominance was enough to secure the championship title by ten points, a fitting reward for a campaign full of precision and pace.

The battle for third saw Toby Mawdsley edge out Nihal Joye, both of whom delivered standout performances all season. Mawdsley, a former N35 racer, has impressed with his adaptation to the faster machinery, while Joye’s pace was often top three worthy, though a few missed rounds proved costly. Rhys Barker, who joined the category late in the season, made an immediate impact with strong drives and even a podium finish in the finale.

In the DMAX Heavyweights, few drivers have been as dominant this year as Antony Wypych. After a commanding display in the DMAX National Championships at Sandown Park, he brought that momentum into SuperChamps and never looked back, with a social media barrage of fellow drivers harking him as the goat. Two sixty-point rounds in the final three events, and a dominant win in the final race, over seven seconds clear, cemented his place as champion, adding a well-deserved SuperChamps trophy to his cabinet and leaving the question, ‘what’s next?’ on many a spectator’s lips.

The title fight had been close throughout the season, with Demetri Wade and Greg Chapman both in strong contention. Wade’s consistency kept him at the sharp end, and Chapman once again made it onto the season podium. Ashley Mayston-King had the pace to fight for the title and delivered great results when present, but two missed rounds ultimately cost him a spot in the top three, finishing agonisingly one point shy. Further down, Stuart Corr and James Estrop made waves with exciting drives but lacked the consistency to stay in the hunt.

The arrival of a new fleet of upgraded DMAX karts midway through the season pushed every competitor to adapt quickly. With Daytona Tamworth’s punishing long straight and infamous final hairpin, the circuit asked questions of every driver’s skill and race craft.

With so many title battles going to the wire, new talents emerging, and veterans returning to form, SuperChamps Season One has set the bar high for 2025. Expect even more fireworks when Season Two arrives. Until then, congratulations to our champions, and to every driver who made this season one to remember.

Daytona Milton Keynes

And just like that, the first season of the 2025 SuperChamps series at Daytona Milton Keynes comes to a dramatic close. In a thrilling finale marked by a sudden shift from prime track conditions to downpours and wet-weather racing, drivers battled hard for those all-important final points in pursuit of the coveted SuperChamps Champion title.

In the SODI class, Charlie Csepreghi took the first heat of the day in the Lightweights only one second over his brother, and Championship, rival Jacob Csepreghi. Owen Turpin took third place on track however, a three position post-race penalty promoted Brandon Edwards up to the podium spots.

In the Heavyweights it was Freddie Jenkins who took the victory in Heat One after dominating the race and finishing eight seconds in front of Charlie Fenton in second place and Sailesh Shah in third.

In Heat Two it was yet again C.Csepreghi who took the victory after a fantastic last to first drive, despite a much-shortened race due to torrential rain which saw the event paused for an hour as the water needed to be cleared from the track. Turpin came second place with Thomas Langford taking the final spot on the podium.

Agastya Lahkar took the Heat victory in the Heavyweights finishing just a few seconds in front of Jenkins, with Fenton yet again picking up another top three finish.

Charlie Csepreghi made it three victories from three as he picked up the victory in the final race of the season and with it took the Championship victory after an impressive season. Turpin managed to hold on to take second place with Langford a further four seconds back in third.

Jenkins took the race victory in the Heavyweights and also wrapped up his Championship in style as he finished 40 points in front of his closest rival of Fenton who picked up second in the championship and the race. Lahkar impressed on his debut in the Championship to take the final spot on the Heavyweight podium.

It would be remiss not to mention the incredible driving of racers like Tom Justice, who impressed staff, competitors and spectators alike with thunderous rounds, namely the first, fourth and seventh, where he picked up podiums in devastation fashion. The five rounds he has driven in have all been a delight to watch and we eagerly anticipate his future drives at Daytona. To provide more colour to the Sodi Lightweight division, the season long battle for first between championship frontrunners, and brothers, Charlie and Jacob Csepreghi has grounds to be called the highlight. Along with Thomas Langford, these drivers have been consistent frontrunners, making a home for themselves on the podium at almost every race they’ve entered. All incredibly close throughout the season, with C.Csepreghi edging the others to claim a SuperChamps title. Owen Turpin should also be praised in the Lights, picking up his first race win in the championship in the first round, with an impressive drive in the final round to boot, securing P2 and an overall P6 in the final championship standings. Expect big things from Turpin in the future as his driving goes from strength to strength.

The Heavyweights saw Freddie Jenkins dominate the division, with a 37-point lead between himself and P2 at the conclusion of the season. Barry Morris should also be mentioned, securing two race victories with maximum points out of just three rounds at which he competed.

In the DMAX class, James King took the victory in the first Heat of the day as he looked to finish strong in the Championship, with him already guaranteed to take home a SuperChamps title before gaining a single point in Round Eight. Harry Asher took second place just 2.6 seconds back with Luka Nik in third.

In the Heavyweights Scott Woosey took the heat as he put one hand on the trophy as he finished four seconds in front of Ashley Mayston-King with David Line picking up third place.

King yet again took the victory in the Second Heat with Mayston-King taking the victory in the Heavyweights after finishing second overall, six seconds behind King and leading the rest of the Lightweight pack. Nik picked up yet another podium with Julia Stankowiak taking third. Woosey yet again picked up another Heat podium in second with Zack Llewellyn-Morris in third.

It was Mayston-King that managed to take the overall race victory as well as the win in the Heavyweights after finishing in front of Nik by eight-tenths. However, it wasn’t quite enough to dethrone Woosey who came home in second place and with it his first DMAX Championship. King couldn’t quite manage to take the victory however did take the Championship after a dominant season. Asher picked up the final spot on the podium in the Lightweights with Llewellyn-Morris in third in the Heavyweights.

This has been an incredibly exciting season in the DMAX division, with Daytona favourites like Samuel Spencer taking their first race wins in the championship. Spencer doing so in dominant fashion and picking up maximum points in Round Seven, catapulting him to a P3 podium finish. Time and time again we have seen dominant drives from James King, with yet another championship title under his belt his skill on track has been unparalleled this season, racking up a near 40-point lead over his closest rival, Luka Nik. No mean feat. We have also been lucky enough to witness Scott Woosey and Ashley Mayston-King in a season long battle for P1 in the Heavyweight division. Both incredibly competent and consistent drivers who can win races with ease on their day. This closely matched campaign ultimately concluded with Woosey narrowly taking the top spot, however next season Mayston-King will likely return with vengeance to reclaim his spot atop the championship standings.
