..:: Porsche F1 Team Press Release ::..
Good evening from San Marino.
Here's our press release from Event 3 of the GP4CC - Season IV, the hotlap-competition at Imola Classic.
Today we finished our one and only track day at this track, as both drivers head off to Greece tomorrow morning for Thursdays last game of the Euro League Group Stage to support their favourite Football Club Schalke 04.
Lutz and André did a fantastic job, only 0.034s stood between them at the end.
Here's what they said about their session:

The car was well prepaired. It took me about 40 laps to find the perfect line through all of the corners around this beautiful track. The updates on the car worked perfect, I felt the progress.
In the end I was lucky to stay in front of André, but 0.380s behind the leader Supermonty is a bit more than at Monaco, but I'm very satisfied with the result... Still 5 events to come - could get very interesting!

Again behind Lutz, but I get closer to him every event... The car was perfect, once again. The crew does a tremendous job. I tried a slighlty different setup than Lutz with less wing at the front. That gave me a faster time in Sector 1 but I lost constantly in Sectors 2 and 3. 25 laps more and I would surely had beaten his time - this will happen at Pau. At the moment he's the teams' #1 driver - but being #2 does not equal with being slower every time!
Let's see what the other drivers will do, would be great for the whole team to have one of us on the podium. The season is still long and we get closer to the podium, the fuel penalties will do the rest for sure...
After studying the data the drivers decided, to have a focus on the grip for Pau.
@TomMK: For Pau please all on grip for Porsche F1 Team!
Good luck to all other drivers who are yet to drive on Imola Circuit - slow down guys
