Care Racing & BMS Scuderia Italia Second

Jean-Marc Gounon, Lilian Bryner and Enzo Calderari took their first podium finish of the season when the three finished second overall at Donington.

Gounon qualified on pole position but lost the clutch on his Ferrari the formation lap and struggled to keep the car on the road.

Bryner took over the car for the second stint and Calderari was able to defend his place from the nr 12 Paul Belmondo Chrysler Viper of Fabio Babini and Ni Amorim, which finished fourth.

The sister car, of Jean-Denis Deletraz and Andrea Piccini, retired with an engine problem after Deletraz took a trip across the gravel.

The pair now cannot win the championship, having gone into the race 15 points behind the leaders and needing two victories to take the title.
