FIA-GT Victory to Vitaphone and Prospeed in Adria 16/05/2009












The nr 1 Vitaphone Racing Team Maserati MC 12 claimed a fine win in Adria today, Bertolini and Bartels racing through the sunset to cross the line 10 seconds ahead of the PK Carsport Corvette C6R of Kumpen and Hezemans. The second Maserati, of Müller and Ramos, finished third, but could have claimed the win without a stop-go penalty. The Luc Alphand AVentures and SRT Corvettes came in fourth and fifth, with Full Speed Racing taking its first points in sixth. The K plus K Saleen had a difficult day, Wendlinger and Sharp going out at the start with a broken driveshaft. Bertolini and Bartels have taken an early lead in the points.
In GT2, Prospeed Competition repeated their Silverstone result, following disappointing qualifying with a fine win for Westbrook and Collard, giving them a good points lead. They were followed by both AF Corse Ferrari 430 GT2 cars, Vilander and Bruni taking their first points of the season, while Barba Lopez and Cadei took a fine first FIA GT podium. The second Prospeed Porsche was fourth, with the Brixia Porsche of Ragginger and Lucchini fifth, after leading for the whole of Ragginger's first stint.
