Another podium finish for Spyker Squadron

Although the team started this morning from ninth position on the fourteen car GT2 grid, both Jarek Janis and Tom Coronel fought their way to the front of the field to finish in a strong second place. It is the second time in a row that SNORAS Spyker Squadron finishes on the podium. In the previous round, the 1000 km of the Nurburgring, the team also finished in second place.

The race started this morning in much cooler conditions than in the previous days. Due to the cold track temperatures both drivers complained that the car was understeering in the early stages of the race. Only after they pushed harder on the tires to get better operating temperatures, grip levels and thus lap times improved.

Tom Coronel: "The car got much better during the race. Although the first stint was a bit challenging, everything was perfect. I cannot think of something we could have done better today. I am really proud that we, a small Dutch team fighting against the big boys, can finish this already great season with another podium position".
