The second round of the FIA European GT3 Championship was held at the Oschersleben Motorpark in Germany, it was not a good weekend for Sean and the team, but he has written a brief race report below.

“”After the Silverstone result we were looking for a win at Oschersleben. But when we got there it proved not to be a Porsche circuit at all, but suited the Dodge vipers! We were around 3 seconds of the Dodge’s pace and it was not looking good. We only managed 19th and 21st position in both the qualifying sessions.

The race was looking bleak and the best we could hope for was a Porsche win, but in race I didn’t even get to drive the car. As just before the pit stop Dimitris was running P1 in the Porsche class and P13 overall, when he got abruptly taken out by the spinning Ferrari of Hector Lestor! That blew the radiator and ended the race there and then.

Race 2, I started and got the car up to P1 in Porsche and P9 overall, I sat most of the race behind a gaggle of Dodge vipers and a Masarati. When I handed over there was a miscommunication between Dimitris and the team, therefore loosing us 15 seconds in the pits. We dropped to P2 in the Porsche class, but Dimitris fought his was back past and into the Porsche and finished P11 overall, we could not do anymore.

If the FIA didn’t do something drastic we would be uncompetitive at Spa also, but luckily they did and the dodge was restricted even more, but still 1 to 1.5 seconds faster than us!””
