This time gunning for outright glory, the Sydney based team has taken on board the racing talent of both Liam Talbot and Declan Fraser within their older 16A variant of the AMR Vantage GT3 but that certainly didn’t hold the duo back at the opening races at the start of the month.
Suffering disqualification from both Qualifying sessions for technical reasons after the event, the #1 car had to drive through the pack to secure a P5 finishing position at the end of race one whilst on Sunday they went even better to finish upon the podium in P2, narrowly missing out with a race win such was their pace.
Now more settled into the surroundings, the #1 crew will obviously be looking for something better in qualifying that will put them in good stead against their fourteen other race rivals around the 2.4-mile circuit layout.
Race one on Saturday will be a night race with a 19:55hrs local time start (sunset 17:13hrs local) before resuming normal service on Sunday with a 14:10hrs start to the second hour long race of the weekend.
