Monday, February 20, 2023

It was back to podium winning ways for the Prosport Racing team at the weekend as they took on their second and the series fourth round of the GT Winter Series at the Circuito Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, Spain.

This time fielding three Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT4’s and a Vantage GT3, the opening thirty minute sprint race produced a first class win for Gabriela Jilkova in her winter transition from the Mercedes AMG GT4 to the Aston Martin whilst co-driver Celia Martin went onto claim a class podium P3 at the end of her solo sprint race before both lady drivers wrapped up another pre-season event with a P2 class finish at the end of the days hour long, pit stop/driver change punctuated endurance race.

Teammates Mike David Ortmann and Yevgen Sokolovskiy also enjoyed podium success with a class third for Ortmann in the opening sprint before both finished just behind Jilkova/Martin in third in the endurance race.

Then, with the new drivers to the series this year with the team saw Nico Verdonck again out on track with Guido Dumarey within the #310 GT4 where the speedy Belgian scooped a class P2 finish in Sprint race 2 alongside their P5 finishes in both the first and last races.

To round things off, the #170 AMR Vantage GT3 crew of Maxime Dumarey and Jean Glorieux each earned themselves valuable track time and a whole new load of silverware by claiming a pair of P3 finishes in each of the sprint races with a P2 finish in the endurance round, all in preparation towards their respective entries into various European based series later this year.
