Prospeed takes on Blancpain

Engaged to aim for victory in the category reserved for pro drivers, Marc Gossens, Xavier Maassen and Marc Hennerici are confident. “ The implication was carefully considered because ProSpeed ​​Competition does not arrive empty-handed in Blancpain Endurance Series. The team has real experience in the GT3 category, as demonstrated by its European champion title acquired in 2010. », underlines the first. “ My wish was to have the best possible “package” with the ambition of playing at the forefront of the competition. The latter promises to be formidable, there are fifty cars at the start! But we have the means to impose ourselves? and I have the motivation to shine both in the 24 Hours of Spa and in the final countdown. Looking forward to the first tests », rejoices Maasen. Hennerici is not the least happy. “ The quality of ProSpeed ​​Competition preparation is a real advantage, as demonstrated by the team's results in recent years. This year also marks the 10th anniversary of my partnership with MoWeKo and Dr. Koch. We are pleased. »

As for the Pro-Am crew, the ambitions are real and the impatience to do battle is already very strong. “ I always look forward to starting a new season, testifies Paul Van Splunteren. Le niveau de performance de la Porsche 911 GT3-R « 2012 » est prometteur. La piloter dans un championnat d?endurance sera intéressant. Le plateau de la Blancpain Endurance Series est impressionnant, surtout dans notre catégorie. Ceci dit, ProSpeed Competition et mon équipier Maxime Soulet représentent des fondations solides pour construire un résultat. » The young Belgian should therefore not disappoint. “ I am delighted to continue my career internationally with Paul, Porsche and ProSpeed ​​Competition. Last year, we demonstrated our competitiveness. The counter showed two successes in the FIA ​​GT3 European Championship. The objective is to continue this momentum. The title in the “Pro-Am” category? We will make a first assessment after the 24 Hours of Spa. » Both will be accompanied by a third driver, whose identity will be revealed at the end of the preparatory tests.
