Lewis and Williams push each other to the limit at Queensland Raceway

It was yet another steep learning curve for Australia’s next wave of circuit racing stars at round two of the 2025 BLU CRU Oceania Junior Cup (OJC) at Queensland Raceway from May 2-4.

Just as it had done at the season opener in March, one of the races was held on a wet track to place an extra premium on throttle control, race craft and strategy for the OJC riders.

Two riders enterprising in all conditions were Connor Lewis and Chaz Williams, with the duo flashing over the finish line in all three six-lap races barely inches apart.

Lewis won the first two before Williams turned the tables in the finale, while the third places were shared by Jai Strugnell, Hunter Charlett and Xavier Curmi.

In the wet opening race, Curmi was one of four riders to crash at turn two on lap one, which brought out the red flag followed by a full restart. Callum Campbell was the only one of the fallers to line up for the second attempt.
