AUCKLAND, N.Z. (March 20, 2021) – Hayden Williams picked up one of the biggest victories of his young career Saturday at Western Springs Speedway winning the feature during the 2021 New Zealand Midget Car Title. Williams ran down Brad Mosen to challenge for the lead with 10 laps to go in the 30 lap main event. Williams and Mosen traded the top position back and forth until Williams took the spot for good on lap 22. Shortly after Mosen brought out the caution by spinning his car in turn two.

Williams was able to pull away during the restart to secure his first victory in the title race in front of his hometown crowd in Auckland.

Ryan Baker, Max Guilford, Zach Daum, and Hayuden Guptill rounded out the top five.

Jonathan Allard dominated the 25-lap sprint car main event. Allard started on the front row and led every lap for the victory over Dean Brindle and Daniel Thomas.
