Matt sealed the victory on the final stage finishing 2nd in the final event in closed circuit event in Colne, Lancashire.  When combined with four other podium places and no finish outside the top five in the whole series, Matt was crowned UK Champion, ” It feels great to take the title and prove to myself I’m back from nearly two years away from racing.” confirmed Matt shortly after being crowned winner after the final race this week.
