KNUTSFORD racer Oli Webb came from the back of the field to secure a second-place finish in class in the final round of the World Endurance Championship in Bahrain.

Webb and his ByKolles team steered through some positive running in practice but some technical issues struck, leading to a missed qualifying session at the close of a challenging but improving season.

Starting from last, some fantastic driving including a double stint from Webb meant ByKolles carved their way to second in class and among the LMP1 manufacturer teams.

Webb said: “This season has been a real challenge for all of us at Bykolles.

"We’ve had our fair share of bad luck and reliability issues but we’ve managed to improve as the season progressed and pick up some solid results along the way.

"Now, we look ahead to next year and doing it all again, hopefully with a few more podiums.”
