.
First time ever to be at this race track. Reto Baumann was a bit nervous, which is a good sign. Took FP1 quite easy and built up to more speed. Since we shared the track with another race series as well, there was a quite big number of cars out there, with considerable speed differences as well.
.
Reto kinda fell in love with the track. Fast, technical and with sections where you had to be aggressive and courageous to get down to a fast lap. Not the longest of tracks, but fun never the less. The lap times started to show how well Reto got the grips of this new track and once he had some free track ahead, he even recorded the fastest lap of the weekend in the Super Touring class. And he knew he had still left some time on the table...
.
Great outing for the car, the team and driver to showcase what they can do in front of the Indy Car teams and fans.
