Italian GT: Riccardo Agostini aiming for the win after two podium finishes

WITH THE ANTONELLI MOTORSPORT’S LAMBORGHINI HURACÁN GT3 SHARED WITH ALBERTO DI FOLCOWith two podium finishes (second at Monza and third at Imola a few days ago in a very wet race), Riccardo Agostini is set for the third round of the Italian GT, scheduled at the Misano Adriatico track this weekend.

The Italian driver, who is proving to be one of the series frontrunners in this first part of the season sharing the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 of Antonelli Motorsport with Alberto Di Folco, lies in fourth place in the Super GT3 class, only 15 points behind the leaders Mirko Bortolotti and Jeroen Mul.

Misano is a track which is a favourite of the young Italian driver - in 2012 when he clinched the Italian F3 title - he claimed one victory and two third places.

Two free practice sessions will run as usual on Friday.
