Another race in the points for David Fumanelli in the second round of the Blancpain GT Endurance Series, on the legendary circuit of Silverstone.

Strakka Racing team, which is based in Silverstone, promoted David to the Mercedes AMG car alongside the Germans: Buhk and Gotze. A great sign of trust from the British team, which confirms the good things done so far by the Italian driver.

Two red flags ruined the qualifying of car #43 and they just qualified 14th on the grid.

David, in charge of the start, immediately recovered few positions at the start, going up to 8th position. Then they held the position until the checkered flag, just 6 seconds far from 3rd place after 3 hours of racing.

Next meeting on the 1st and 2nd of June at the French circuit of Le Castellet, for the 1000km of Paul Ricard.
We still got important points, which will be fundamental in the championship. Honestly I was hoping to get something more on our home circuit, but we were not lucky in qualifying ... I can not wait to get back in the car and I hope this time to be in the fight fot the podium until the end!
