• Leusch wins Winter Series title with four podium finishes
• Louis Radcliffe finishes as top rookie with double victory
• Finlay Lines celebrates maiden win in only fifth Ginetta race

Sebastien Leusch has been crowned the 2026 Ginetta Junior Winter Series powered by Sunoco Race Fuels champion, sealing the title after four action-packed races at Snetterton.

Leusch hit the ground running with victory in the opening race on Saturday, before Finlay Lines joined him in securing a maiden Ginetta Junior win in race two. Impressively that came in only Lines’ fifth race in the category, and meant he and Leusch were tied at the top of the standings overnight.

Louis Radcliffe had set the pace in qualifying on day one and produced a repeat performance on Sunday morning. He went on to convert his double pole into a brilliant pair of race victories on day two, as he became the second youngest Ginetta Junior race-winner of all time.

Those results moved him up to second in the final standings as the leading rookie contender, but it wasn’t enough to stop Leusch’s march to the title. Impressive consistency in mixed weather conditions saw him finish all four races on the podium, to ultimately be crowned champion by 15 points.

Jacob Ashcroft was only two points adrift of the summit overnight but lost crucial ground in race three, however a podium hat-trick across the event put him third overall in the end. Lines had a tougher Sunday than hoped, but it took nothing away from a standout weekend.

Ferrari Driver Academy member Noah Baglin produced a great performance on his Ginetta Junior debut, picking up an overall podium finish in race three. Luca Luen and Ian Danicska also made trips to the podium, each collecting trophies in the rookie class.
