Keohane heads for Castle Combe

This weekend, rounds 13 & 14 of the British F3 Championship will take Ireland's Michael Keohane to the Castle Combe circuit in the south of England where the 21-year-old will aim to move to the fore in the points standings. Currently the joint leader of the Scholarship series with Britain's Robbie Kerr and Northern Ireland's Matthew Gilmore, the Ibstock Brick-backed driver will be looking to take maximum points from each of Sunday's two 20 minute encounters.

Diving for Irish team Meritus Racing, the Cork star will have just 45 minutes on Saturday morning in which to familiarise himself with the 1.85 mile long circuit and find a set-up for his Toyota powered Dallara F398 before qualifying for prestigious series later in day. Already with two wins to his credit, Michael has an excellent chance to add to his impressive results tally this weekend and further establish himself as one of Ireland's top up and coming racing talents.
