Guild Continues Title Fight in Racing Prodigy Championship
The Racing Prodigy P3 Championship has emerged as a groundbreaking platform, demolishing financial barriers and creating unprecedented pathways for sim racers to transition into real-world motorsport. At the heart of this exciting series, the Guild Prodigy Racing Team has demonstrated tremendous fight and skill, continuing to challenge for the title and showcase the talent cultivated through sim racing.
After two intense rounds of competition, Guild finds itself locked in a thrilling battle for the championship. Sitting just eight points behind leaders TC Racing, the team has proven that their quality on the virtual track translates to the tarmac.
Drama in Miami
Round 3 of the Championship at the Homestead-Miami Speedway proved to be a rollercoaster of emotions for the Guild drivers. In a heart-stopping encounter with BS+ Competition, Nathan Maximin delivered a performance that epitomized the razor-thin margins of motorsport. Despite an exceptional drive that saw him leading for most of the race, Maximin was ultimately denied victory by a mere 0.07 seconds – a testament to the championship's intense competitiveness.

However, the team's spirit remained unbroken. Will Redford's third-place finish and Laurens Beerten's fourth-place result secured a crucial team victory, highlighting the depth of talent within the Guild team.
The subsequent head-to-head with TC Racing saw Guild truly shine. Laurens Beerten delivered a masterclass performance, securing both the race and team victory. Will Redford continued his consistent form with another third-place finish, while Aimee Frame added valuable points to the team's championship challenge.

The championship standings reflect the intense competition, with Laurens Beerten sitting fourth, just four points off the top spot, and Will Redford close behind on 41 points. With 6 rounds across the three events so far, Guild match leaders TC Racing with five wins and one loss. The team continues to benefit from the coaching of racing legend Katherine Legge and the strategic leadership of Team Principal Seb Hawkins.
