Seb's talent has got them talking
IT IS a case of back to school for young Seb Priaulx, but father Andy has no doubt his son has the qualities to build on a highly successful maiden season in the Ginetta Junior Championship.
Seb, 15, placed ninth and fourth at Brands Hatch at the weekend to secure seventh overall in the standings and runner-up in the rookies championship, but over the final weeks of the season there was hardly anyone faster than the Les Beaucamps High schoolboy as he showed with the second fastest lap at the closing meeting.
'He has achieved more than I ever hoped for. I knew he was good, but didn't know how good,' said his proud father.
'By the end of the season he had 21 podiums and was the only rookie to have two poles.'
Priaulx senior says that, subject to funding, Seb will be back in the Ginetta in 2017, but father and son are already eyeing greater things.
