Littlewood pools more wins to go second in Ryan Motorsport Insurance Autosport Rankings

Radical racer Marcus Littlewood has shot up to second in the Ryan Motorsport Insurance Autosport National Rankings, while Ali Bray has extended his lead at the top of the table.

Bray continued his unbeaten start to the British Racing & Sports Car Club’s Mazda MX-5 Championship with narrow wins at Donington Park last weekend, to take his 2025 tally to 12 victories and move him four clear of the chasing pack as he is already building a commanding advantage.

But there has been plenty of movement behind him, with Littlewood now his closest challenger after bagging a trio of Radical Cup UK triumphs at Snetterton. Those wins have sent him flying up 20 spaces on the leaderboard.

Meanwhile, Monoposto master George Line also enjoyed a successful weekend to move to the head of an expanded group of seven drivers now with seven wins to their name. He took another two wins in his Dallara F308 at Silverstone to climb from 16th to third.

Another driver to have enjoyed a successful start to the year is McLaren racer Mark Smith, who registered another three GT Cup wins at Snetterton to jump 29 spaces into sixth.

Rounding out the improvers inside the top 10 is Clubmans Sports Prototype ace Steve Dickens, he is also now on seven 2025 wins after bagging a hat-trick at a Snetterton MotorSport Vision Racing event that has had a major impact on the top of the table. Dickens’ triple delight has allowed him to climb 33 places into seventh.

Further back, the next driver to leap up the leaderboard is another to have been victorious in Norfolk. Ali Topley headed the older Zetec S class of the Focus Cup in all three races to enter the table in 18th spot.

Away from Snetterton, Matt Luff is the next highest mover having claimed a single Audi TT Cup Racing triumph at Donington to move from 28th to 23rd.

He in turn is one place ahead of regular Formula Ford 1600 winner Jason Smyth, who proved to be the driver to beat in the Northern Irish championship as it ventured across the border to Mondello Park to become another new name in this week’s table.

Ryan Motorsport Insurance Autosport National Rankings

All car races in UK and Ireland are included except qualification/repechage, consolation and handicap races. No races in other countries.

Class wins are only counted when there are at least six starters in the class, except: when the race is part of a multi-stage event where six or more have taken part in earlier heats that feed into a semi-final or final; when multiple championships are merged in the same race, the ‘overall’ winner from the slower championship can count a class win as long as that championship has at least 10 starters across all classes. Only classes divided by car characteristics are included, not those divided by driver characteristics such as ability, professional status, age, experience (for example rookie or pro-am classes). Each race counts only once, so an overall winner’s class win is not added.

Where there is a tie, overall wins take precedence. Where there is still a tie, average grid size for a driver’s wins determines the order.
