Castrol Toyota Racing Series

The Castrol Toyota Racing Series got underway in style last weekend in Cromwell, with some spectacular racing from a grid of 15 high quality budding young international racers representing no fewer than ten countries.

He's won in Formula 4 and Formula 3 in Germany and Asia but New Zealander Liam Lawson put his name firmly in the international spotlight over the weekend when he won two of the races and the first round of the Castrol Toyota Racing Series in style against a high quality field of international racers at the Highlands Motorsport Park in Cromwell.

If Saturday's first race heralded the arrival of home favourite Liam Lawson in the 2019 Castrol Toyota Racing Series, then the 20 lap Sunday feature race marked him out as one of the championship favourites.

New Zealand racer Brendon Leitch made it two from two for Kiwi drivers at home when he was declared the winner of the second Castrol Toyota Series race of the weekend at the Highlands Motorsport Park in Cromwell.
