RACE REPORT – Mantorp Park – Grande Finale 2019 Team did a determined ‘race-to-the-final’. With new gearbox mounted and run-in, less weights in terms of BoP (-10 kg) the team had hopes for a turning tide when we headed to Mantorp Park in order to end the final races in GT4 Scandinavia 2019. Our AM-driver Axel got unable to join us this weekend due to reasons outside the team's control so we applied for a dispensation in order for me to drive solo in both PRO- and AM-category. Such was approved with a time-penalty in the pit-stop - time to do some endurance racing! FREE PRACTICE & QUALIFICATIONS Mantorp Park is a ‘power track’ in terms of circuit layout with some relatively tight corners leading out on long straights, we were afraid that this could be a challenge for the Alpine with less power than its competitors. However, we’ve used the time on track effectively and hunted speed in terms of running the car, setups and driving. Thus, we had yet hope to compensate the somewhat less time on track this season than the major part of the starting field in GT4 Scandinavia. We made our best qualifications this season with a P4 in PRO and P1 in AM, setting the start position for Race 1 and Race 2, respectively. RACE 1 With some risk management in the start I lost one position that I could get back within a couple of laps. Then advancing to 3rd and hunting down the pair of leading cars (Mercedes GT AMG and Porsche 718 Cayman). Before pit-stop the top-3 of us were all within a second. After a safety-car period that packed up the field the pit-stop window opened. Our pit-stop was executed effectively and we could advance to leading the field after an overtake of the leading Mercedes. Time for race-pace and we could exceed the lead with more than 20 seconds, before we backed off somewhat on pace and brought home our second win of the season safely over the finish line – YES!
