US F2000 – Nico Jamin wins Winterfest 2015

The US championship F2000, which is part of the Road to Indy, will only really begin on the weekend of March 28 and 29 in St Petersburg, Florida, but already Frenchman Nico Jamin distinguished himself on the American circuits. After two podiums in Louisiana at the NOLA Motorsports Park last week, the 19-year-old from Rouen took advantage of his success in the last race contested last Thursday (and offering double points) at the Barber Motorsports Park (Alabama) to win. impose on accumulation of the two events making up Winterfest 2015.

« The first assessment is rather positive. We did a great job throughout the Winterfests, 4 podiums out of 5, and a victory in the race which counted for double what gave me the championship. Before the start of the last race, I didn't necessarily believe in it, and didn't think that such a result would be possible because I was quite a few points behind. It was a pretty crazy race, with a lot of full yellows. When the race restarted with 4 laps to go, I knew that now was the time to give it my all, it was my opportunity! Franzoni closed all the doors but I managed to surprise him from the outside. » indicates Nico Jamin who will now want to follow in the footsteps of his compatriot Florian Latorre, US F2000 champion last year, and now entered in the Mazda Pro Championship.
