GPGSL Season 5- S6 CALENDAR VOTE RESULTS
Posted by GPGSL
Aston Martin Racing Press Release.
US Grand Prix
Fantastic drive by John Warrington to get a podium in his debut race for Aston Martin Racing. Obviously there was a lot of luck involved in his 2nd place, but well deserved seeing as he kept his nose clean, driving in support of Nick van der Voort.
Nick was on for a better result than he obtained due to an altercation with Team Shadow driver Ed Greenhalgh, which is rather embarrassing for AMR as you will find out later in this press release. However Nick has increased his lead in the WDC to a 14 point gap over Marko Aleksander.
Driver Signings for Season 6
Aston Martin Racing is very pleased to announce that Ed Greenhalgh will be joining us at AMR as number one race driver (Hence the embarrassment!). Ed will be a great replacement for the retiring Nick van der Voort, who we thank very much for all his hard work in not only this season with Aston Martin, but also four seasons with Velox and the GPGSL governing body. Ed Greenhalgh had this to say to the gathered reporters, "It has always been a dream to drive for such a famous marque. I had a great time at TSS, but I am looking forward to facing a new challenge at a new team. I thank the team again for the opportunity and am looking forward to rewarding them with good performances." This of course reunites Ed with former TSS team mate John Warrington
AMR are also pleased to announced they have re-signed Adam Davies as a test driver for next season. Adam had this to say, "Although I am disappointed to have lost my race seat at Aston Martin Racing I am happy to stay at the team as i feel this is currently the best option for myself moving forward in my career. The team has been very competitive this season and I see no reason why that will not continue in the future. I had offers from other teams but Aston is where my heart is at the moment and it is a pleasure to continue to drive for this illustrious name."
As to the identity of the 2nd test driver, all Stuart Ingers would say is, "We are in negotiations with a highly rated driver, watch this space!"

That is a mixed race. Chris had a great race and made me proud, solid performance pays out in a good amount of points for the team. John had difficult race but showed his extreme potential.
John one of the best drivers we've ever had. I just have to compare him with Philip Oakley for his raw speed and his great sociaL abillities.
It's sad to see he didnt get a shot at the AMR race seat. (if im correct, Stu?).
Congratulations on Ross Cartwright for his victory.

Thank you Rico for these especially kind words. I feel very honored and am truly sad that our working relationship won't go on after this season, because of very unlucky circumstances. However I very much enjoy my time at VSM and will do everything possible to get some more good results for the team in this season (if I'm not hit all the time 
) to help creating a good basement for VSM's next season and to convince potential interest of my abilities

2nd and a fastest lap on my return to racing. Couldn't of dreamt for better than that! A prime example that keeping your nose clean pays off.

You sure you didn't dream of winning?

I didn't think I'd get anywhere near winning
Congratulations Ross on a well won race - that's you up to 4th in the drivers title too (and only 9 points away from me - oh ****) 
First driver to win 3 races this season, Ross - so doubly well done
From my calculations...
van der Voort 116
Aleksander 102
Kittleson 99
Cartwright 90
Houston 86
Mathematically I am still in the title race - 45 points left with a 17 point gap. Might be more realistic to concentrate on fending off Shadow Subaru for the constructors title
SCR 189
TSS 169
AMR 168
MPR 140
A very interesting season, methinks.

You had only made one pitstop at the same, so you dropped back when you did.
