Chris Dittmann Racing left Snetterton last weekend empty-handed despite demonstrating race-winning pace during the third event of the Wera Tools British F4 Championship season. Following a successful trip to Brands Hatch last time out, where the team secured three top-five finishes and firmly moved into title contention with leading driver Tommy Harfield, hopes were high that the momentum would continue as the series headed to Norfolk for rounds seven, eight and nine. The event got off to a positive start with an official test day on Wednesday, giving the drivers plenty of track time and an opportunity to adapt to[…..]
Chris Dittmann Racing bounced back to form during last weekend’s second round of the Wera Tools F4 British Championship certified by FIA at Brands Hatch, with Tommy Harfield securing the team’s first podium of the year and catapulting himself into the title picture in the process. After a tough start to the season at Donington Park last month, the CDR team faced a very different sort of challenge on the tight 1.2-mile Brands Hatch Indy Circuit, where less than a second separated the entire 30-car field during pre-event testing. Here, more than ever, mistakes would be punished harshly, and that’s[…..]

Ultimately, a tough qualifying session on Saturday gave the team an uphill battle, however each time the CDR cars rose to the challenge to make some impressive progress across the races. During pre-event testing the quartet of Tommy Harfield, Henry Mercier, Piotr Orzechowski and Daniella Sutton all showed great potential, highlighted by Harfield setting the fourth fastest time of the opening session. However, the weekend itself[…..]
