In what was a tight affair at Sydney’s Oran Park Raceway, Young Victorian driver Lauren Gray walked away with a second place in the National Class in round two of the Kumho Tyres Australian Formula 3 Championship.

The weekend was Lauren’s return to Open Wheel racing after again proving herself behind the wheel of a production car – this time at Mount Panorama, Bathurst – in the WPS 12 hour driving a Bendon Holden Astra Diesel.

In only her second race meeting in the newer 2001-Dallara – a car vastly different to drive than the older 1996-chassis she used to finish 2nd In Trophy Class last year – Gray, 19, entered the weekend hoping for a consistent performance and a clean run to the flag in each race.

Promising signs were shown in Saturday’s second qualifying sessions with Lauren’s lap times constantly dropping close to her fellow National Class rival Chris Barry.
