Indian racer Jaden Pariat is all set to bounce back this weekend as the Rokit F4 British Championship heads to the home of British Motorsport – Silverstone. The championship will headline the weekend as the drivers take on the awesome Grand Prix Circuit.
At 3.661 miles, the track will present the competitors with a new challenge as they take their first steps on the journey to Formula One and follow in some famous wheel tracks around the legendary Northamptonshire circuit.
The weekend will mark the beginning of the second half of the season for Jaden aand he will be looking to put the bad luck of the last few races behind him and focus on scoring some strong results over the course of the three, 20-minute races to get his championship challenge back on track. Armed with a positive mindset and a team well equipped to succeed, the focus is on rediscovering the form shown earlier in the year and taking the fight to his rivals.
The weekend begins today with two free practice sessions, before the all-important qualifying session on Saturday June 23rd at 09:35 BST (14:05 IST). Race one takes place later that afternoon at 13:45 BST (18:15 IST), with race two due to take place on the morning of Sunday June 24th at 10:10 BST (14:40 IST) and race three at 13:15 BST (17:45 IST).

“We’ve done a little bit of testing on the Silverstone GP Circuit. We did a day prior to the media day and then the media day, so we’ve done two in total. Unfortunately, the first day was wet and snowy. I think I know where to go and I’m pretty sure we won’t have any snow this time! We got some decent track experience there, and now we’ve done five race weekends, we are certainly more prepared.
“After last weekend the goal is to find that mojo back again and that feeling that I have with the car. Oulton Park didn’t go to plan but we’re confident we’ve found the lost pace. We’ve always been fighting for top 10 places, so fingers crossed we’re back where we should be. We always pick ourselves up and I don’t see why we won’t this time out.
“The team and I are ready for the it and I’m aiming high. I’m not going to aim low anymore, but I just want a smooth and successful weekend, just to get back on track and get the feeling back. There are 15 races left so we can start from square one and I’m looking forward to it.”
