Matthew Brabham finished the six race Cooper Tires Winterfest Championship with a win, two fastest laps, three 2nds and a 4th, but a mechanical issue in race 5 pushed the third generation driver down to third in the final points tally.
After the ultra competitive showing at the first three races at Sebring, Matthew initially struggled to find the sweet spot with his setup at the low grip Palm Beach International Raceway.
Matthew Brabham scored his first win on American soil with a commanding drive in round 3 of the USF2000 Cooper Tires Winterfest Championship held at the famed Sebring International Raceway.
After qualifying second Matthew unfortunately suffered an electrical problem in race one with two laps to go while challenging for the lead, and just held on to second place as his car came to a stop two corners after the chequered flag.
Matthew Brabham made a lightning trip to Sebring Fl last week, for a two day test with his new team Cape Motorsports with Wayne Taylor Racing.
This was the first time that all three team drivers were on the track together, plus drivers from rival teams Belardi Auto Racing and Pabst Racing. The first day ended with Matthew fastest, although the times were very close between the Cape Motorsport with Wayne Taylor Racing drivers.
