24H Series opener at Portimao - Update
Thursday, June 11, 2020
With the teams now having completed their second and final private test session today ahead of the start of the weekend's more formal proceedings, there as just a couple of updates that need to be made.
Firstly but unfortunately unsurprisingly, the entry list has now seen seen Team Virage withdraw their Aston Martin racing V8 Vantage GT4 from the Series opener in Portugal - presumably due to an insufficient number of available drivers.
However, on the flip side of that we see the #401 Prosport Racing AMR Vantage GT4 secure a fourth driver join the already announced Belgium line up of Rodrique Gillion, Nico Verdonck and Tom Heeren as they are joined by Austrian racer Constantin Scholl about a car that sports a 2020 version of the German team's usual white and orange livery theme.
Todays test saw #401 crew finish second fastest car beyond the faster GT3 entries.
Tomorrow sees the first and only Free Practice session ahead of Qualifying for all classes tomorrow evening and Night Practice tomorrow night. The start of the 24 hour race itself begins at 12:00Hrs local.
