PF International test with Jon Lancaster

It seems like a long break over the winter months, with the recent heavy snow having an effect on events nationwide, but it was satisfying to be able to get to PF International this weekend, as part of the Jon Lancaster family team.

Jon's 2010 season should be settled early next week as he puts in place exciting plans for this year, with potentially Formula 1 just on the horizon. And nothing could be more befitting than Jon, who ain't so 'little' anymore, when bearing in mind his race-winning seasons in Renault World Series 3.5 (2009), European Formula 3 (2008), and European Formula Renault (2007), which of course followed his highly successful final year in karting in 2006 as the Vice World Champion.

Jon has retained close links with Ronnie Sala at Birel, one of the leading karting marques of the 21st century, and as a means of keeping Jon's eye sharp in preparation for his 2010 season in Europe, Ronnie, along with his former karting engine man Fred and GKS Lemmens, had provided a brand new chassis and engine for the PF International test.

A full report will appear on http://www.jonlancasterracing.com/, but needless to say, Jonny Boy had an exciting time back on the karting season after almost a four year absence.
