The rain dodgers! 2026 Norfolk & Suffolk JMC Championship Round 2 - Race Report & Results

The second round of the Norfolk and Suffolk Junior MCC championship was held on Sunday, 15th March at the home track of Great Hockham. Dodging the rain for the most part with some bright sunshine meant the track was in top condition.

The Auto class was dominated once again by George Foames, going 1-1-1 and bagging the Holeshot with ease. There were some strong battles with close lap times amongst the top ten riders. Caden Robinson had a solid day, going 3-2-2, coming 2nd overall with a super-fast lap time in the 3rd race. Louie Hutchings had another good day, riding with a 3rd place finish overall. Well done to all 24 Autos, with some racing for the first time this weekend.

Onto the 65cc group – yet again, our biggest youth group of the day. These youngsters don’t hang about! It was great to see Chase Miller back from injury and straight onto the podium with a 2-2-2 for second overall. Max Miller made it a sibling double on the podium with a clean sweep of 1-1-1 and another holeshot in the bag. Harrison Webb rode superbly to secure third place with a consistent 3-3-3 across the day. There were some excellent battles between Sonny, Arlo and Kenzie across the day too – all eager to get a top 5 finish.

The Small Wheel 85 was the most exciting classes of the day. Some really close riding with a different order and riders in the top 3 for all races. Freddie Preston got his first race win in the SW85 class in the first race and the Holeshot in the second. Harry Rennie battled for the race win in the 2nd and 3rd races. Roman Drew, George Hutchings and Jack Howell were all up there battling for the top 5 finishes. The overall podiums for the day went to Harry Rennie in 1st, Freddie Preston 2nd and George Hutchings in 3rd.

Some close battles in this Big Wheel 85 class, with Senn-Rico Lawrenson and Bentley Russell crossing the line within 10ths of a second for 4th place in the first race. Alfie Burkill had the fastest lap times of the day in all 3 races and the holeshot in the second, but a DQ in the last place affected his overall position for round 2. Finley Smith took the overall win for the round with a 1-2-1 across the races. Ceiran Rendell took the second spot on the podium overall, and Senn-Rico Lawrenson rounding up the podium with 3rd overall. A strong class of riders on the gate for the round, I look forward to seeing how the podium shapes up for Round 3.

The Youth 125 and Youth Open classes saw a lineup of 30 riders ready to battle for the top spots. The Youth 125 podium saw Bobby Topping take the top spot, with Tommy Pope taking his first podium since moving up to the 125 class in second, and Daniel Marr in 3rd. Harry Hetreed and Kyle Morland are drawn on points for 4th – some close riding in this class early on in the season. The Youth Open/250 class was won by Leyton Turner overall, closely followed by Jesse Gordon for 2nd overall. Third place was a tie on points with Oscar Knights just pipping Josh Wyer on race results in the 3rd. With a couple of race restarts and retired riders in this class, we wish the injured riders a speedy recovery and look forward to your return to the championship in future rounds.

The adult classes saw a few vets dusting off the bikes to kick start the season and getting the first race under their helmets for the championship, great to see them battling it out in the A group. Race wins across the board in the A group for Charlie Nudds, closely followed by Connor Bunkle. The B group had big smiles for Katie Stock drawing on points for 4th and a second in Race 2. The overall was bagged by Jayden Gallop, with Matthew Turner in second and vet rider Richard Squirrell in 3rd.

Rounds 3 and 4 are on Good Friday and Easter Saturday (3rd/4th April) at Great Hockham.
