Skip Barber National Championship - Round 6 At VIR
1 year ago
The Skip Barber National Championship drivers were greeted by a damp but drying Virginia International Raceway for the round six qualifying session. Round five winner Spencer Pigot made the most of the changing conditions claiming his second pole of the season. Two rookies put in impressive qualifying runs with Brandon Newey claiming second and Scott Anderson third.
With clear skies and a dry track, the field took the green for round six. Pigot lead from the pole into turn one and was immediately challenged by fellow MAZDASPEED driver Felix Serralles for the top position. By mid race Isaac Lyons moved to the front and lead laps four and five. The top seven cars ran nose to tail the entire race with all the drivers racing clean for the length of the race. Pigot moved back to the point on lap five and lead until the penultimate lap. On the final lap Luis Michael Dörrbecker, who had been stalking the leaders from fifth, moved into the lead for the first time of the race. In turn ten contact between the second place car of Spencer Pigot and third place car of Nick Andries gave Dörrbecker just enough gap to hang onto the lead down the long VIR back straight. Dörrbecker, who started seventh, scored his first ever Skip Barber National victory. Felix Serralles and Nick Andreas rounded out the round six podium.
