Noah Killion runs away with AU4 race one in Sydney
The Sydney-based AGI Sport driver took off the start and charged ahead to take victory.
SYDNEY – Noah Killion charged past Harrison Duske off the start and ran away from the field to take victory in race one of the AU4 series second round in Sydney.
Killion, from Sydney, celebrated his win with a moonwalk as he took valuable championship points and a record lap time around Sydney Motorsport Park of 1:29.8903.
The race was interrupted with a dramatic crash between Chloe Lane and Koby Wilson, as Lane's Gen2 car speared off the track and rejoined at the hairpin, taking out Wilson. Both drivers walked away from the collision, but Wilson was stranded on the side of the track, bringing out a long delay in the middle of the 25-minute race.
Cohen Kokotovich did his best to challenge Harrison Duske for second throughout and mounted a strong challenge on the restart but was pinged with a five-second penalty and dropped from third to fifth in the final results.
Duske held on for second while Isaac McNeill held off Imogen Radburn and Brock Burton in a tight contest for fourth, with McNeill and Radburn promoted after Kokotovich's penalty.
With just a handful of points separating the drivers, Killion is into the lead by just six points ahead of McNeill, with just Sunday's two races to decide the inaugural AU4 championship.
Andrew Fitzpatrick took victory in the Gen1 category.
