STARS AND STRIPES VICTORY IN LAGUNA SECA ///

 19.10.2018

Great success on American soil for David Fumanelli and the Strakka Racing team at Laguna Seca!

On the legendary Californian track, which hosted the second edition of the 8 hours of California, last round of the Intercontinental GT Challenge series.
A total of 32 cars competed on the magical corners of the American circuit, with the famous "corkscrew" turn.

After an excellent qualifying ended in 2nd position in class, David and his team mates dominated from the early stages, taking the lead after only two hours from the start.
The pace of the Mercedes AMG GT3 number 42 was unbeatable for everyone and brought to a beautiful class victory and an amazing eighth place overall.
A great result that closes an intense but satisfying year, divided between Blancpain Endurance and Intercontinental series.
We finished our championship in style! I would like to thank Strakka Racing team for the fantastic car and for the opportunity to have raced on this legendary circuit. It was my first time in America and winning at debut is always something special! I hope to be able to come back here very soon.
