DAVIES SECURES KUMHO V8 TITLE AT SANDOWN

Shae Davies wrapped up the Kumho V8 Touring Car Series title on the penultimate day of the Shannons Nationals season at Sandown.

The Fernandez Motorsport Ford driver finished third in the first of three Kumho V8 races for the weekend to secure the crown.

Fellow Ford driver Ryan Simpson converted pole position into his eighth consecutive race victory in the class while Matthew White made the most of a mid-race Davies mistake to complete the top three.

The second MW Motorsport Ford of rookie Jack Le Brocq started from the front-row and eventually came home fourth after the 21-year-old was forced to recover from a bad start.

Matthew Hansen Tony Evangelou Terry Wyhoon Matt Chada Gerard McLeod and Matthew Palmer completed the top 10 with two further races to conclude the season on Sunday.
