New important result for Michele Beretta at the wheel of Lamborghini Huracan GT3, scoring the second win in the Silver Cup of the Blancpain GT Sprint Series Cup 2016. On the hard british circuit of Brands Hatch, Michele made a fantastic job in the Main Race after the issue he got in the Qualifying one that pushed back him in twenty-third place. During the pause, an incredible work carried out by Grasser Racing Team has allowed to change the gearbox-clutch unit of the italian supercar within two hours, allowing Michele Beretta and Luca Stolz to take part in the Main Race; started from the twelfth row, the young italian driver has been author of a remarkable comeback, thanks to a fast pace and a great determination during many overtakes, which allowed him to leave the car to his team mate in twelfth place. Luca Stoltz then finished the job bringing the car in tenth place overall and first in Silver Cup, repeating the success achieved in the opening round of Misano Adriatico.
Michele Beretta: “This win came after a really exciting race: Brands Hatch is not an easy circuit, very technical, where it is very difficult to overtake. In the first laps I was able to take advantage from the new tire and recover many positions. The car was good and the guys did a great job after the Qualifying Race, replacing the transmission so quickly. No doubt it is a great result for us and for the team that gives us hopes for the next race at Silverstone.“
