Martin Brundle (pictured here back in his F1 days, with a certain Michael Schumacher) scored three top-eight finishes on his racing return in Formula Palmer Audi at Spa on Sunday. In an extra twist, the 48-year-old - he last raced professionally in 2001 at Le Mans - was racing against his 17-year-old son, Alex, who is currently lying sixth in the championship.

Brundle finished eighth in the first of three races, two places behind his son, but improved with each outing, to finish seventh and sixth later in the day - beating Alex on both occasions. That’s 2-1 to the senior generation.


“I really enjoyed it,” Brundle Snr said afterwards. “Considering it’s my first FPA race, I’m reasonably satisfied with the result. These young guys are quick.”
