Grice dominates in Alcaniz

British driver Tom Grice dominated the European KF2 Championship Qualification in Alcaniz - the PDB driver, after performing consistently well in the heats session, and also taking Heat 2 win, took first overall. Tom finishes 2nd in Race 1 after leading for few laps, and 1st in Race 2, having the better of his direct rivals with a superb last lap overtaking manoeuvre. A good performance also for Robert Butler from Ireland, who took 7th overall.

Good news also from the Northern Region, where Sweden’s Felix Frojd clinched a good 7th overall, and Finn Leopold Ringbom recovered up to 15th overall in KF2. PDB star Michelle Gatting made her way through to the European Final in KF3 on the track in Goteborg after taking two 2nd places in the heats. An accident in Heat 4 forced the Danish driver to start from 22nd on Race 1 grid, but Michelle made a good comeback to finish 16th.

Bad luck for Bromseth, Oberg, Binder in KF2 who just missed out on the European Championship Final - to be held in Braga (P) on 3rd August - where PDB Racing Team will line up a total of 4 drivers. Michelle Gatting will represent PDB colours at the European KF3 Championship Final in Varennes (F) on 7th September.

‘It’s been a very busy weekend for us – said PDB Racing Team Principal Peter de Bruijn – but I’m happy we’ve managed to take 5 of our drivers to the final events. We could have done a bit better in KF3, but it was mainly down to racing accidents, from which it’s quite difficult to recover. Considering we had to divide our efforts between Sweden and Spain, I can say fairly satisfied.’
