Commenting on this, His Highness Sheikh Isa said: “It was a great weekend, and I am really proud of the whole team that came and delivered, both sides of the garage.”
“The yellow side showed a solid tempo, and was in the fight from the start, James was fighting through his entire stint, the pit stop was executed perfectly, and Johnny did what Johnny did to bring it home for the win. The silver side of the garage put up a tough fight but never gave up.”
“They kept plugging in, running their own race. Ian bobbing away on every stage to move up the order, another flawless job by the pit crew got him onto important ground in the main competition, and Jules continued to challenge for the flag,” he said.
The duo of James Cottingham and Jonny Adam turned their front-line start to victory after overcoming the pressure in the closing laps.
Ian Logie and Jules Gounon also managed to turn their race around, going from trying to dominate to fiercely competing for the podium.
Cottingham expressed his happiness with the results achieved this week and the second victory of the season. He thanked the team for providing the car that enabled the drivers to compete with strength and confidence this season.
He said that he maintained an advanced pace throughout the race, and that the members of the technical team provided him with great support even during the stoppage, stressing that he was confident in his colleague Johnny, who continued at the same pace that led them to the podium. .
