Sebastian Job from East Grinstead in Surrey was crowned as RAFA Racing Club Porsche Esports Carrera Cup GB champion for 2025 with two wins at the penultimate weekend of the season. The Oracle Red Bull Sim Racing star took a confident victory in Round 13 at Donington Park, Matt J Caruana from Reading overcame mixed weather conditions in Round 14 to win on the road, however a penalty for Caruana later promoted Job to another victory, enough to see him take a record fourth Esports title (2021, 2023, 2024 and 2025)  .

Meanwhile, Aidan Walsingham from Bath in Somerset drove to a seventh Amateur category win in Round 13. The wet weather conditions of Round 14 added to the challenge of Donington Park’s longer 2.4 mile Grand Prix circuit for everyone, however, even this could not slow Walsingham’s progress. He emerged ahead again recording a remarkable sixth consecutive Am win, making him Am category champion ahead of the final races of the season in two weeks time.

Job makes it a perfect weekend Pro

Peter Berryman from Corby in Northamptonshire was the early pacesetter in qualifying, however a late fast lap from Job was enough to secure his fourth pole position of the season. Job got off the line well in dry conditions to lead through Redgate at the start of Round 13, Berryman and Luke McKeown from Shoreham-by-Sea in West Sussex maintained their starting order just behind.

Caruana soon attacked Alexander Davidson from Menstrie in Scotland for sixth overall but he could not find a way through. Drama followed when there was contact between Jacob Tofts from Hatfield Heath in Essex and Gareth Higgins from Exeter in Devon in the opening laps. But ass the order settled, Luke Pennington from Bideford in Devon suffered a spin following contact with Crofton Woodhatch from Midsomer Norton in Somerset at the Melbourne Hairpin.

In the closing stages of the race Caruana and Davidson reignited their battle for sixth. With their places now reversed this time it was Davidson on the attack, he successfully converted the outside line at Coppice into the inside line at the Fogarty Esses to get ahead. At the flag Job took his fifth win of the season with Berryman finishing second and McKeown in third. By coming home in eighth place, real world racer Tofts would secure reverse grid pole position for Round 14.

When the lights went out for Round 14 Caruana and Davidson challenged Tofts for the lead, Davidson emerged out of Redgate ahead with Caruana second and Leo Gariboli from Hemel Hempstead in Hertfordshire up to third. It quickly became apparent that several drivers had opted for grooved wet weather tyres in the hope of rain later on, however, on a dry track they all fell to the back of the pack – amongst them William Chadwick from Wrightington in Wigan.

As Davidson continued to lead Caruana, the front runners fought for position and there was contact leaving Job with damage and Gariboli losing ground. The drama left Davidson and Caruana leading McKeown and Berryman as the latter overtook Job for fourth place. With 12 minutes of the race remaining rain finally arrived, the leading group initially continued but one lap later they all drove to the pit lane to switch from slick to grooved wet weather tyres.

With wet tyres already fitted to his GT3 Cup since the start, Chadwick closed on the leaders as they remerged onto the track in increasingly tricky wet conditions. After the pit stops Davidson and Caruana remained ahead, but Chadwick was now up to third and closing, meanwhile Job passed championship rival McKeown for fifth. With six minutes still on the clock Caruana muscled his way by a defensive Davidson at the Melbourne Hairpin, contact between the pair forced Davidson wide. As a result Caruana now led Chadwick from Berryman.

  In the final few laps of the race Job overtook Berryman and Chadwick for second before setting after the race leader. McKeown also gained by advancing to third, that left Chadwick, Berryman and Gariboli giving chase. On the final lap Job attacked Caruana on the final approach to Redgate but there was contact forcing Job wide and leaving Caruana ahead. And there was further contact between Chadwick and McKeown at the Melbourne Hairpin before the flag fell. Caruana crossed the finish line ahead with Job in second and Gariboli taking third, however a penalty for Caruana later promoted Job to his second win of the weekend, enough to secure him the championship.

Walsingham takes sixth consecutive win in Am

Aidan Walsingham from Bath in Somerset would start ahead of his Amateur category rivals again in Round 13, and the Am championship leader maintained his advantage at the start of the weekend’s first race. Just behind Scott Moakes from Meppershall in Bedfordshire grabbed second, with Conan Wearn from Norwich moving up to third as Christian Szaruta from London slipped backwards.

With 11 minutes of the race remaining an intense battle for fifth took shape between Oliver Ettridge from Nuneaton, Guy R Edwards from Staines-upon-Thames in Surrey, Daniel Cofield from Doncaster in South Yorkshire and Adam Cox – the group swapped positions across numerous laps. However, at the flag it was Walsingham ahead once more, he took his seventh Am category win of 2025, joined on the virtual Am podium by Moakes and Wearn.

Round 14 started in dry conditions but Am leader Walsingham opted for wet weather tyres in the hope of rain arriving later in the race. Walsingham fell back at the start as his slick-shod rivals advanced, Moakes soon found himself leading Szaruta from Edwards. When the rain arrived in the second half of the race those on slick tyres made pit stops to change to wets, this allowed Walsingham to retake the category lead.   In the closing stages of the race Walsingham came under pressure from Moakes who was running on far newer tyres, however Walsingham was able to successfully defend the challenge despite the difficult wet driving conditions. This left Walsingham clear to take a remarkable sixth consecutive Am category win, his eighth category victory of the season. Moakes finished second with Szaruta coming home in third. With his result Walsingham has now been crowned as Am category champion for 2025.

Following the weekend for an incident between Matt J Caruana and Jacob Tofts in Round 14, two seconds was added to the race time of Caruana. Peter Berryman received the same penalty for an incident with Jacob Tofts, as did William Chadwick for an incident with Peter Berryman. For the contact between Sebastian Job and Matt J Caruana on the final lap of Round 14, Caruana was handed a two second time penalty which reversed the finishing positions of the top two.

The final weekend of the championship takes place at Brands Hatch on 20 April, one week before the start of the 2025 Porsche Carrera Cup GB and Sprint Challenge GB seasons.
