Swiss Racing Team FIA GT1 Paul Ricard HTTTThe fourth round of the FIA GT1 World Championship took place at the Paul Ricard High Tech Test Track in Le Castellet in the south of France with temperatures above 30 degrees Celsius.

Swiss Racing Team started with their two NISSAN GT-R’s with starting numbers 3 and 4. Ara’s/Nilsson’s GT-R (#4) achieved the expected result and was able to compete in the second qualifying session on Saturday. In Q2 the duo managed to win start position 16 for the qualifying race.

The Swiss team wanted Wendlinger’s/Moser’s car to reach Q3. However, the qualifying did not go as hoped. They did not reach Q2 and the car started the qualifying race from the eleventh row.

Henri Moser (CHE) had a good pace and handed the car over to Karl Wendlinger (AUT) at P14 after a good pit stop. Wendlinger was forced to do an additional pit after two laps because his right front tyre was damaged after a collision. Shortly after, the Austrian got a 10 second stop and go penalty from race control because he obviously caused two collisions. The team did not get an explanation why he got this penalty. Therefore Wendlinger was not able to deliver any more results. He finished in P21.
