Andrew Jordan claimed his fourth championship title of 2005 when he secured the Ginetta Winter Series crown at Croft on Saturday (12 November). Having already claimed three rallycross championship titles this year, Andrew went to Croft with a good chance of adding the Ginetta Winter title and duly scored two second places to earn his first motor racing championship crown.The 16-year old from Sutton Coldfield faced tough competition as the Croft entry included former Ginetta champion Stewart Linn as well as Andrew's title rival, Adrian Miller.Linn was fastest in both qualifying sessions, with Andrew second fastest as cold and damp conditions made the North Yorkshire track very slippery. Linn and front-runner Andrew Thompson had also entered the sports/saloon race that preceded the opening Ginetta race and so started the Ginetta race with their slick racing tyres up to full working temperature.While Linn was able to edge away, Andrew was battling hard with Miller for second and dropped to third early on as Miller went through. But with a bold move at Sunny Corner, Andrew stormed back into second and two corners later Miller slid off the road and out of the race. With third-placed Thompson also being caught out by the conditions, Andrew was able to race home for a secure second place and move closer to the title. Into third place came F1 TV commentator Tony Jardine in the VIP car.Later in the day, the second Ginetta race started with Miller's car being pushed off the grid with a water leak, so Andrew knew that a safe finish would make him champion. Linn again led, with Andrew battling for second with Thompson. However, with the title firmly in his mind, Andrew let Thompson through to second and then shadowed his rival to the flag. When Linn went out with a misfire, Thompson won the race, with Andrew right behind in second."We should have had the win in the second race, but it was right to play safe and make sure of the championship," said Andrew after another mature performance. "Winning four championships in one year is amazing result," he added after securing what is thought to be a unique result in British motorsport for 2005.Andrew Jordan is supported by John Guest, Team Dynamics, Bill Gwynne Rally School and Pirtek.
