Ferrari Challenge Europe Rolls Into The Czech Republic For Round Two
Company press release.
Ferrari Challenge Czech's in to Brno
Brno, - The Ferrari Challenge Europe rolls into Brno in the Czech republic this weekend for the second round of the championship.
Local interest will be provided by Scuderia Praha lead driver and dealer principal Robert Pergl (No.11), who will compete in the Trofeo Pirelli category. The team will also enter 2 cars in the Coppa Shell category for Slovakian drivers Jakubik (No.188) and Kukacka (no.190).
Pergl is a highly experienced Ferrari racer having participated in the Ferrari Challenge for over a decade and also splits his time racing in the FIA GT and European Le Mans Series. 'Brno is a track where I started racing some 15 years ago,' says Pergl. ' I know the track quite well - actually the last race here was in a Ferrari GT3 car and we won the 6 hours race -I hope that it will give me some advantages.
'The profile is really nice to drive, very flowing, up and down. The track is very wide so you can take different lines and create some opportunities for overtaking. I still remember many people on the grandstands during Ferrari Racing Days in 2009 and I would like to welcome all fans to come to the track to see great racing.'
The current Trofeo Pirelli championship leader Lorenzo Casé, and runner up Stefano Gai, in the Trofeo Pirelli series will not attend the Brno round as they will be racing with AF Corse in European Le Mans Series (ELMS) at Imola. All eyes turn to third place man Sergey Chukanov in car No.32 and forth place holder Dario Caso in No.8. Chaukanov will receive a two place grid penalty in the second race at Brno after his 3rd place in Monza.
All three of the championship leaders in the Coppa Shell will race in the Czech Republic with championship leader David Gostner leading the field after a third and a fourth position in Monza. This means he will receive a 2 place grid penalty in race one and six positions in race two. Second place man Dirk Adamski will receive a 6 place penalty in race one after his win in Monza. Standing third in the championship is Vincenzo Sauto who will be demoted four places on the grid in race two after his second place finish in Monza.
The stage is set for some exciting racing in the Czech republic.
