On Sunday, Ashbourne driver Peter Dempsey scored his first win of the year in the Star Mazda series, at the Road America circuit in Wisconsin.
Dempsey, a former Dunlop Motorsport Ireland Young Driver of the Year, qualified second despite engine problems in testing, and took the lead early in the race, only to drop to second place following a yellow flag and restart. In the closing laps, he retook the lead from John Edwards and stayed ahead to the chequered flag.
