Mini Se7en drivers join Charlie Budd’s move to the Miglia Class.

Trading Places

Fresh from his Mini Se7en championship win, Charlie Budd announced his move up to the more powerful Mini Miglia Challenge ahead of the Autosport International show. Rather than defend his title, Budd will now compete with an estimated 28 Mini Miglia entrants in 2018. Joining him in the move is 2016 Se7en champion Ashley Davies and regular race winner Lewis Selby; both converting their current cars to run wider 10-inch Dunlop slick tyres and tuned 1293cc engines. Former Mini Miglia star, Dave Edgecombe, will make a welcome return to the grid, while Kieren McDonald has also decided to jump from the Se7ens to the Miglias.
