Circuit Catalnuya is hosting the season finale of the 2014 International GT Open this weekend. Team Novadriver is entering two Audi R8 LMS ultra cars in the GTS class.
Race 1 held this afternoon gave great satisfaction to Team Novadriver. The Portuguese Audi Sport customer racing team finished the 38-lap race in a strong fifth overall and took and great second place in the demanding GT class.
The #58 Audi R8 LMS ultra shared by César Campaniço and Aditya Patel battled very well for GTS victory and finished right behind class winners Shaun Balfe and Phil Keen with their #84 Ferrari 458 GT3.
Bad luck hit the second Team Novadriver Audi R8 LMS ultra. Fernando Monje and Fabian Hamprecht driving the #88 Audi were forced to retire after 27 laps.
Race 1 results can be seen here.
The second race will be held tomorrow. We wish the best of luck to Team Novadriver and their drivers.
