CORCORAN
CLINCHES SCHOLARSHIP CLASS TITLE
24 September
2011: Despite failing to finish at Donington Park this
afternoon, Cavan Corcoran went home with the Scholarship Class
championship title, the Derbyshire 18-year-old's points tally now
enough to secure the coveted 'junior championship' title.
Cavan started his
season with a Mygale chassis run by the Getem Racing team, with
which he won the class on 12 consecutive occasions, before
switching to a Cliff Dempsey Racing Ray for the second half of the
year and claiming a further two class wins.
The Matlock-based
driver says he hopes to return to the Dunlop MSA Formula Ford
Championship of Great Britain in 2012: "It's been a brilliant
season, particularly since I have limited single seater
experience. I have hardly done any testing this year, so I have
been very much up against it, and I am still learning. Despite
this I have made very good progress and changing to Cliff Dempsey
Racing has definitely helped me improve; hopefully I will be
pushing for the title in the main class next year."
Corcoran's
Scholarship title represents a major bounce back to form after he
sustained serious injury in a sports car crash in 2007 which put
him out of the sport for a year.
"Cavan has
driven brilliantly all year," said championship co-ordinator
Penny Mattocks, "and is a worthy Scholarship title winner.
Everyone in Formula Ford wishes him every success in his future
track career."
