THE irresistible Callum Queripel dominated the first meeting of the new autocross winter season.

He won five races, defeated the defending champion and won driver of the day.

Meanwhile, Linda Jones began her defence of the women’s title with a win ahead of the summer champion Lianna de la Mare.

Queripel came off the start of the very first race of the new season on a mission. He stayed ahead of Shaun Bichard and was never headed throughout the race.
