Miata Trophy returns to action on Saturday 9 August, as the picturesque Oulton Park International circuit gears up to host Rounds 9 & 10 of the championship’s 2025 season.
Hills Motorsport’s Aidan Hills has been in fabulous form so far this season and will head into Oulton Park full of confidence. The #8 driver has picked up race wins at each of the championship’s four race meetings so far in 2025, including double race-victories at both Snetterton and Silverstone.
Last time out, at Donington Park, there was a hard-fought first Miata Trophy victory for Hills’ teammate James Cossins. Both Hills and Cossins will be looking to again challenge at the pointy end of the order this time out, but there are plenty of others who will be hoping to do the same.
Amongst the challengers are the two previous Miata Trophy Champions Declan Lee and John Langridge. Lee, in particular, has been phenomenal at the Cheshire circuit in the past, winning each of the championship’s four Oulton Park races to date.
Will he return to the top step this year, or will be there be a new face claiming the winner’s trophies?
One thing’s for certain, Oulton Park will surely provide plenty in the way of entertainment for both driver and spectator.
The Cheshire circuit offers an array of challenges for our Mazda MX-5 drivers to contend with, including two testing chicanes in the form of Hislops and Brittens. Constant changes in undulation ensure a number of blind crests and adds another level of depth to the circuit’s straights and corners - there’s even a banked corner for drivers to master!
With the championship now into the second half of its 2025 season, the importance of each and every point cannot be understated. Hills, Cossins and Lee are the current top three in the overall standings, but with six races remaining and drop scores considered, there’s still plenty to fight for.
The likes of Hills Motorsport’s Jack Brewer and Will Morris, along with AB Motorsport’s Oliver Allwood and Mcalpin Motorsport’s Tyler Mcalpin, will all be aiming to continue their fine point-scoring form to push further up the rankings, as will the rest of an expected bumper Oulton Park grid.
