Welcome to the Second Seasonal SPRINT Awards. Throughout the next few hours we will honour those drivers who, throughout Season 3, have earned the right to have been nominated, and voted for, to recieve a SPRINT Award.
We received 13 different sets of votes this season which resulted in some close contests, and some runaway winners.
So, without further ado, our first SPRINT is in the category of:
ROOKIE OF THE SEASON
This award is eligible for any driver who has participated in 5 or more races in Season 3, and did not compete in any more than 2 races in Season 2. 5 of the Rookies were voted for but the overwhelming winner of our very first award, is
MÜLE_9242.
Mule showed his dominance early in the road courses by winning at Monza with an alternative strategy which allowed awesome tyre wear. And with making it comfortably into The Chase in his first season, as well as proving a threat week in and week out, the award is thoroughly deserved.
With Mule now being the Ford Team Owner, and fielding a very strong team for Season 4, the S3 Rookie of the Season could easily become a Most Improved Driver of the Season for next year, with a potential Championship to boot.
Mule, this Rookie of the Season award is yours. Congratulations man.
