Misano, 4th July, 2021

Race 1
The first of the two rounds of the GT World Challenge Europe powered by AWS underway at Misano Adriatico ended with fourth place in both the Silver Cup and Pro-Am.

Silver Cup
Benjamin Hites and Patrick Kujala, in the 488 GT3 Evo 2020, finished the sixty-minute session just off the podium in the Silver class after a tussle with the third-placed Mercedes crewed by Tunjo-Puhakka. The Rinaldi Racing entry took the chequered flag in twelfth overall after an attacking performance in the two stints by the Chilean and the Finn. Chris Froggatt and Giorgio Roda endured a tricky race behind the wheel of the Ferrari of Sky-Tempesta Racing, having to chase after a contact that sent the Italian into a spin in the early minutes. The duo completed their comeback in twentieth overall and eighth in class, slowed by the second of two Full Course Yellows, which ended with 15 minutes to go.

Pro-Am Cup
Andrea Bertolini and Louis Machiels endured an uphill struggle in the mixed professional and gentleman driver class. A contact at the start punctured their right rear tyre which,  after being replaced, put the five-time champions in fourth place in class, one lap down.

Race 2

The 488 GT3 Evo 2020 of Rinaldi Racing claimed a splendid second place in the final round of the GT World Challenge Europe at Misano.

Silver Cup
The race was a straightforward affair, with none of the full-course yellows seen yesterday. After finishing just off the podium in Race-1, Benjamin Hites and Patrick Kujala put in a superb performance following the Finn’s excellent qualifying session, which clinched a front-row start. After chasing the leader in the first few minutes, Kujala had to cede second place overall before the obligatory stop at mid-race. Hites took over from his partner, climbing to sixth overall and second in class. Chris Froggatt and Giorgio Roda of Sky-Tempesta Racing also secured a top ten finish in ninth.

Pro-Am Cup
Fourth place overall went to Andrea Bertolini and Louis Machiels, who missed out on the podium by just five seconds. The two enjoyed a solid race, with the Italian climbing in among the leaders before the obligatory pit stop.

Appointments
The GT World Challenge Europe powered by AWS will be back on track for the eagerly awaited 24 Hours of Spa, from 29 July to 1 August, with the stars of the Endurance Cup returning to action.
