Michael Krumm, driver of the Nissan GT-R for the Sumo Power team in the GT World Championship, is not only a good driver, he is also a good coach for his wife, Kimiko Date-Krumm. The latter, a Japanese who stopped professional tennis in 1996, relaunched her career two years ago, thanks in particular to the insistence of her husband. This role was highlighted this Tuesday, during the victory of Kimiko Date, 39, over Dinara Safina, former world number 1 and double finalist at Roland-Garros, during the first round of the French Open Tennis at Paris.

« It took me almost eight years to convince her, confided Michael Krumm to the Team. When I met her, the first thing I said to myself was “What a waste, she is so young, in good health. It?s completely crazy to stop. » » After his fine third place in Brno, at the wheel of the Nissan GT-R that he shares with Peter Dumbreck, Michael Krumm was able to have the pleasure of witnessing his wife's victory during her second career.
