Dean Stoneman completes an impressive double winVictor Jimenez takes second Pro-Am1 victoryTough race for Michael Meadows after clashDean Stoneman completed a perfect debut weekend in the Porsche Carrera Cup GB at Brands Hatch, Sunday 31 March with his second race win in less than 24 hours. In another action-packed race, Jonas Gelzinis and Dan Lloyd claimed second and third, while Victor Jimenez made it a double win in Pro-Am1.The start of the race was critical and it was Stoneman (Redline Racing) who got the best start from second on the grid to dive ahead of poleman Michael Meadows (Samsung Smart Motorsport). Things got even worse for Meadows as he was bundled down to fourth place at the opening two corners by Rory Butcher (Celtic Speed) and Gelzinis (Juta Racing) as Lloyd (Team Parker Racing) joined in the contest.Butcher quickly took the battle to Stoneman as the five-car pack went clear at the head of the race. Then, into Paddock Hill Bend for the seventh time, Butcher ran fractionally wide. Gelzinis grabbed second and Meadows dived up alongside Butcher at Druids. On the exit of the corner the cars touched and Meadows car spun across the track and into the barriers. He managed to continue to the pits for the team to check the car and then resumed a lap down to finish ninth.Now it was Gelzinis chasing Stoneman with Butcher and Lloyd making it a four-car pack. Finally, on lap 23 Lloyds dogged pursuit was rewarded when Butcher ran wide at Druids and Lloyd nipped through to third place. Lloyd then closed the gap to Gelzinis, but that was how they stayed to the flag as Stoneman completed a remarkable return to racing with a beautifully judged victory. Stoneman was also awarded the driver of the weekend award, while Redline Racing was named the Drift team of the weekend."I got a good start and I was in control all the time," said Stoneman. "I just concentrated on bringing the car home."

Gelzinis was only six-tenths of a second adrift at the flag and was happy with his race pace. "I drove a measured race and I was thinking about the championship."

Lloyd, meanwhile, was pleased with third after a non-finish in the opening race. "Its really difficult to pass round here, so to start P5 and finish on the podium is great."Behind fifth-placed Richard Kent (Samsung Smart Motorsport) came Jimenez (Redline Racing), who drove another excellent race to win Pro-Am1 after a race-long battle with Pro category racer Dan De Zille (Redline Racing). That was a very good race: I was fighting with De Zille and he was very good, said Jimenez. Kyle Barnes (Redline Racing) took second in Pro-Am1 to complete a good debut weekend, while George Brewster (Celtic Speed) completed the Pro-Am1 podium after a couple of spins. Pro-Am2 racer Peter Smallwood (Parr Motorsport) was sidelined by gearbox problems.Round 2 results:Pro category: 1 Dean Stoneman; 2 Jonas Gelzinis; 3 Dan Lloyd.Pro-Am1 category: 1 Victor Jimenez; 2 Kyle Barnes; 3 George Brewster.
