Hot weekend for Grosjean

Romain Grosjean was able to pilot a car last weekend. The Frenchman replaced Jérôme d?Ambrosio for the two Hockenheim races, where he did not fail to display a high level for his return to the GP2 Series. He returns this weekend with a busy schedule: a race in GT1 with the Ford GT Matech and the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps in GT2 with a Mosler MT 900.

« I love riding at Spa and I'm looking forward to this weekend! », Comments the Frenchman. “ I already had a fantastic weekend at Le Mans a month and a half ago and so I know what awaits me. I know that the two schedules are compatible, so I am delighted to be able to combine the two! ". The Matech driver will have a new teammate in GT1 in the person of Neel Jani and will have his second experience in a 24 Hour race.

Furthermore, he has good hopes of scoring big points for the world title. “ This weekend, I'm here to optimize our chances of winning a world title. The car is lighter than during the last stage at Paul Ricard, we lost 20kg out of the 40kg of ballast we had, and that will allow us to be much more aggressive on the track. »

The Matech driver will join the Gravity International team after his race to pilot the Mosler. “II'm going to discover the Mosler first, because I've never ridden it. I will also discover the GT2 category! The team has a lot of experience and I think we can achieve a good result. I enjoyed participating in the 24 Hours of Le Mans so much that I promised myself I would try a similar experience again. I am delighted that Gravity International is offering me such a great opportunity so quickly! This weekend's challenge is going to be really interesting. This comes well before the 3 week blackout in August! »
