Formula Sheane Preview The 2016 Formula Sheane season is on the cusp of the horizon kicking off on April 17th with a double header on Mondello Parks National Circuit. The series then heads off across the Irish Sea to compete on the cliffs of the spectacular Anglesey Race Circuit in North Wales in May as Ireland’s only internationally racing single seater series where it will contest two more rounds with a special trophy race to be included in the line-up. In June, its back to Mondello Park’s International Circuit, the longer twisty layout always throws up a few surprises in the mix. In July and August it’s up to the ultra-fast Kirkistown Race Circuit for four rounds, the long straights and flat out 140 mph turn one really test the drivers. The second visit in August will crown the Northern Irish Championship winner for the second consecutive year. The conclusion of a whole years racing comes down to the final race weekend of the year for the Leinster Trophy Races on Mondello’s International loop. For the first time in many years, Formula Sheane will be racing for prize money at the 12th and final race of the year alongside one of the prestigious Leinster Motor Club trophies. 2016 is looking more competitive than ever with seven different race winners competing for this year’s honours and a handful of drivers that have finished on the podium in the past who are chasing an elusive first win in the series. The Scholarship Championship for Rookie drivers is really heating up, with several drivers who have taken wins in the Championship returning to see can they take the big prize this season. Races are more often won by tenths of seconds and this year is certainly no different. The new revised rear wing that was introduced to several cars last year are to be made compulsory to all cars this season and the introduction of a “Fan Cam” system will give fans and spectators of the series a little more involvement with the drivers. The “Fan Cam” system is a voting system that will place a Go-Pro on the competitor’s cars with the most votes at each race weekend. Fans and spectators will be given the chance to vote on the Formula Sheane Facebook page on the week prior to the race, voting will last from the Monday to the Thursday. Formula Sheane now enters its 15th competitive season and shows no signs of slowing down. Words: Andrew Murphy.
