Aston Martin powered teams enjoy the class success in Valencia with Iberian Supercars Series return

 

The Aston Martin Racing powered success of the weekend extended into the Iberian Supercars Series return to racing at their Iberian Festival meeting at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit in Valencia.

Twenty-eight GT4 based cars and crews featured within the now stand GT4 class and races of both the Supercars Iberian and Supercars Espana Series that ran concurrently again at weekend.

 

Within that healthy entry list, four were powered with an Aston Martin Racing Vantage GT4 or GT4 Evo at the event as they chased down podium successes within their available Pro, Bronze and Am classes.

The #28 Racar Motorsport AMR entry of Vasco Oliveira and Manuel Giao got things off to a flying start on Saturday by claiming their GT4 Bronze class pole position going into that race before converting that into a P2 result in class by the end of that 28 lap race whilst the GT4 Am class title leading #777 RV7 AMR of Rubens Vaquinhas and Mico Mineiro came through at the end to scoop a P2 visit to the podium for themselves.

 

Race two of the weekend on Sunday was an even productive affair with the #28 Racar crew this time claiming a class win from their P2 starting position on the alongside the #77 Racar GT4 Pro entry of Mathieu Martins and Anton Morsing who had put their non-finish in race one behind them to take the overall race win this time around.

They were joined on the podium by the #007 NGT AMR Vantage GT4 crew of Fernando Soares and Miguel Ferreira who claimed a P2 class podium after a disappointing within race one of their own in GT4 Am whilst the #777 crew this time had to make do with a P5 finish in class.

 

These results keep Oliveira at the top of GT4 Bronze in Iberian, but Vaquinhas does drop to joint second in GT4 Am whilst in Espana, Oliveira does likewise within that class but Vaquinhas drops to P3 in that table with a lot more ground still to make up for in Pro.
