FOURIE HOPES FOR FAVOURABLE CONDITIONS IN PE (Audi S4)


Johan Fourie Racing Press Release



Johan Fourie will be a man on a mission at round three of the WesBank Super Series as he tries to reduce the points deficit between himself and the other Bridgestone Production Car Championship contenders.

Johan is no stranger to Aldo Scribante, putting in many hours of testing in his team’s home town. Whilst his knowledge of the circuit will work in his favour, he will still face some tough opposition.

During the 2012 season, the category made two trips to Aldo Scribante. Michael Stephen (Audi S4) matched Johan in race victories, with each driver claiming three race wins. The other two wins went to Subaru’s Hennie Groenewald. These results indicate that Stephen is likely to be the man to beat, but there is yet another hurdle. The results don’t show what kind of pace the newly launched F30 BMW 335is will have and if the Killarney results are anything to go by, the BMWs will be right on pace.

“It is definitely going to be a challenging weekend with some strong competition. We can’t afford to make any mistakes. At the same time however, we have nothing to lose and everything to gain with a strong set of results. I don’t think I am going to play this one conservatively,” remarked Johan.

As per the 2012 regulations, the pole sitter in all three races can choose whether the race with begin from a standing or rolling start. A standing start together with the tight, twisty nature of the circuit will really swing the results in favour of the four wheel drive cars.

“We always have spectacular racing in PE and I urge all motorsport fans not to miss the action on 28 April,” he concluded.
