Sibley’s Midget standing tall in Ryan Motorsport Insurance Autosport National Rankings

Paul Sibley has dominated the Midget & Sprite Challenge this year, and another two wins have sent him charging towards the top of the Ryan Motorsport Insurance Autosport National Rankings.

Sibley has now guided his Midget to 10 victories in 2025 after his latest double at Castle Combe last weekend, catapulting him from 10th to third in Autosport’s winners’ table.

Sibley is now part of a growing gaggle of drivers on 10 wins, but is still four adrift of long-time pacesetter Ali Bray.

Another moving to 10 wins is Marcus Littlewood, although had he not suffered a rare DNF, he might well have added a further triumph. Instead he had to make do with two Silverstone wins and narrowly missing out on sealing the Radical Cup UK title early as he climbs from 12th to fourth on our leaderboard.

Last weekend was a very busy one for club motorsport and there is plenty of movement in the table, including Jason Smyth being another to progress inside the top 10.

He scored two Champion of Brands Formula Ford 1600 victories at Brands Hatch, which provided a bit of single-seater action at the Mini Festival, to climb from 22nd to ninth.

While Sibley has been the driver to beat in terms of overall Midget & Sprite victories, Hugh Simpson has been almost as dominant among the Class D ranks. He was also unbeaten at Combe to fly 22 spaces up the rankings to 11th.

But in terms of victories last weekend, no-one can compete with the four that Tyler Read secured in Legends at Croft.

After missing out on the Legends Elite Cup title last year in slightly bizarre circumstances, there was no disappointment this time around as he took a quartet of wins. These sent him rocketing from outside the top 50 straight into 14th spot.

Next of the improvers is Niall Bradley, another to enter the table this week, in 17th. He topped both of the Ramair BMW races at Combe and was in the mix with the special 3 Series anniversary contest as well before brake woes intervened.

Rounding out the changes inside the top 25 is a trio of drivers who all secured a solitary success.

Ollie Reuben headed the Equipe Libre bout at Oulton Park in his TVR Griffith to jump from 35th to 20th, Daniel Garrett triumphed in one of the Snetterton Locost encounters to move up 16 places to 21st, and Mark White registered another Armed Forces Race Challenge success in his Honda Civic in Norfolk to climb 17 spots to 23rd.

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.
