Bonaldi Motorsport will be defending Amstutz and Kujala’s record in the PRO-AM category and climb the PRO standings top up with Kodric…

The Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo's next venue is the French circuit Paul Ricard for the third round of the season.

This track is one of the most famous circuits in the world thanks to its “Courbe de Signes” where, during past Formula 1 races, drivers clocked over 340 km/h after the very long straight of Mistral. It is said that journalists used to meet at this curve to check which drivers could drive without decelerating for even a fraction of a second. Ayrton Senna was said to be the only driver inFormula 1 history to drive along the entire curve without removing his foot from the accelerator. He kept on the gas starting from his arrival at the Toleman team in 1984.

Bonaldi Motorsport has to defend Amstutz and Kujala’s record in the PRO-AM category during this French round. The two drivers have only three points more than the nearest pursuer but have domonstrated the best performances of the category. Barbosa and Vera need to cement their positions in PRO-AM category as well after their podium in Silverstone.

The Croatian driver Martin Kodric is aiming for the leading positions in PRO category and is going to France with renewed energy after his selection for the Young Drivers Program 2016 by Lamborghini Squadra Corse…

Martin Kodric: “This is great news and it is a real honour to be offered this opportunity from such a prestigious brand as Lamborghini is. I am sure that taking part to the Young Drivers Program will let me improve my skills both on the track and outside it.”.

Ricardo Vera: “I have good expectations for this race and we are hoping to get back in the podium again and gain some points to be back on the championship race.”.
