CATERHAM 'DREAM TEAM' SET FOR BRANDS FINALE

The 'Caterham dream team' of de Zille Butler and Fennymore will be getting together in a CSR 260 at Brands Hatch next week (19/20 Oct), venue not only for the deciding rounds of the evo Caterham Eurocup but also for the down-to-the-wire conclusions of the Avon Tyres Caterham Superlight Challenge, the Motorsport News Caterham Roadsport Challenge and the Circuit Driver Caterham Academy. Six new Caterham champions will be crowned by the end of the meeting.

Fennymore is on the brink of another major Caterham success: the 42-year-old from Oxfordshire has already netted the Eurocup Superlight Sprint and Endurance championship titles and is poised at Brands to take the Superlight Challenge crown for the second successive season.

He is hoping that his CSR drive with de Zille Butler in the Brands Eurocup triple-header will be the icing on the cake: "Ben and I shared a Caterham last year at Paul Ricard and really enjoyed working together. The aim is to have a bit of fun together but race victory is very much the aim."

British GT Championship frontrunner Ben concurs: "It's a one-off to finish this season. Graham asked me to join him in the CSR at Brands. Despite it being a bit of fun we will be looking for some wins along the way."
