You race to win, that is clear. However, there is a phase in a driver’s development where results must be evaluated in a broader context.

„Winning is certainly a fundamental goal, but it cannot and should not be the only evaluation parameter. In a young driver’s growth path, a victory represents a signal, an indicator that confirms the value of the technical, mental, and strategic work correctly done. But it is only part of the equation.“

🏁 WSK FINAL CUP – ROUND 2 | CREMONA CIRCUIT 🏆

💪 A tough day for Benji Westwood on track.

Luck just wasn’t on his side this weekend — the first heat ended early after contact, and the second one proved challenging as well, not fully reflecting his true potential. Still, Benji showed determination and the right attitude throughout the day. 👊

Head down, keep working, and come back stronger — that’s what racing is all about! 🔥

Here are his results from today (08/11/25):
• Warm Up – P/Out
• Eliminatory Heat (A–C) – P27 ➡️ Out
• Eliminatory Heat (B–C) – P23 ➡️ P21
