Abbi Pulling Chasing More GB3 Success After Solid Start to Weekend
Abbi Pulling heads into Sunday's two remaining GB3 Championship races at Silverstone with another points finish already secured after a steady opening to the weekend.
The Rodin Motorsport driver qualified fourth for Race 1 before taking sixth place in Saturday's opening contest. She also secured eighth on the grid for Race 2, putting herself in a strong position to add to her championship tally across the final two races of the weekend.
Pulling currently sits eighth in the GB3 standings after an up-and-down start to the season. While a number of DNFs early in the campaign dented her title challenge, the reigning F1 Academy champion has already shown exactly what she's capable of.
At Spa-Francorchamps in May, Pulling made history by becoming the first woman to claim both pole position and victory in the GB3 Championship, leading from lights to flag in a landmark win for the series.
That breakthrough proved she has the pace to fight at the front, and this weekend's qualifying performances suggest she's once again in the mix. Starting inside the top 10 for both remaining races, Pulling will be looking to convert that pace into another strong haul of points as the GB3 season continues.
