AM Racing Shines at Grand Finale Race of Superhatch Championship
Round 10, the grand finale on the Superhatch championship took place Saturday 25th November at Zwartkops Raceway.
Race day - Qualifying After setting the fastest qualifying times on practise day, AM Racing’s Alex Marques went out to prove he was more than ready to take the title home. He once again finished with the quickest time, 1.6 seconds faster than his nearest competitor and secured pole position.
Race 1: Starting in pole saw Alex held on to first position. However, he lost a few positions because of the bad weather which saw a few accidents on the track. This forced the race to be red flagged. He held onto to 3rd position.
Race 2: With the rain not subsiding for the entire day, it was going to be another interesting wet race. Alex started in position 3 and by the end of the lap 1, the FUCHS Lubricants-sponsored team driver was back leading the race again. An excellent drive in race 2 saw the team take a 1st place overall finish for the day and valuable points to increase our chances of a top 10 finish in the overall championship.
