Royal Navy pair dominate round 2 of UK Armed Forces karting championship at Ellough Park

Watch: Action from round 2 of the UK Armed Forces Karting Championship

It was double success for two Royal Navy drivers at the second round of the UK Armed Forces Karting Championships.

The action took place at Ellough Park Karting Circuit in Beccles, with Navy racers Sam Cresswell and Tom Shelton winning both of the endurance races they took part in.

The third endurance race, which the Navy weren't involved, saw a strategic pit decision pay-off as Kart 28 from the Royal Engineers took victory.

Elsewhere, the Premier race was won by the Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineers' Ian Hodgkiss after a super double overtake.

The next round of the championship will take place in Dorchester on 24/25 May.
