The 2015 Renault UK Clio Cup season came to a close at Brands Hatch GP last month, with Ashley Sutton emerging as the first rookie champion in the series for twelve years.
Sutton overcome Ash Hand and Ant Whorton-Eales in a tense season finale, eventually taking the title from Hand by only five points after the eighteen race season.
As well as taking a one-two at the top of the outright drivers standings with Sutton and Hand, Team Pyro also took a clean sweep of all the other class titles on offer.
Sutton himself comfortably won the Graduate Cup honours, while Mark Howard took the Masters Cup as Pyro dominated the Entrants’ Trophy once again.
