Duncan Tappy, from Surrey, driving a McLaren 650s GT3

Duncan’s first British GT race of the season saw him overcome a sizeable weight handicap and a compromised qualifying session to power his car to a top-10 position – only for a technical failure to send it tumbling back down the field.However his racing partner Gregoire Demoustier then repeated the feat to take the duo to a top-10 finish.The weekend’s visit to Rockingham Motor Speedway in Northamptonshire was the first-ever for Gregoire and the Von Ryan Racing team. It was also Duncan’s first British GT race of the seasonAnd the race was an eventful one. British GT rules state that driver pairings must consist of a gold and a bronze-rated driver. However Duncan and Greg are classed as gold and silver drivers respectively.This meant they must drive with 75kg of ballast on board. As a result the car’s single-lap performance was heavily compromised and they could only manage to qualify in 19th position.
