A fantastic win for our McLaren #5, in Blancpain Endurance Series, Pro-Am class, qualified 2nd at sunny Castellet :
David Dermont (driver) : “It’s just extraordinary ! It was super hot in the car. Fred did a great qualifying, which put us at ease because the car had a good pace. But we missed the singer and we really want to share this victory with Koen Wauters “.
Olivier Lainé (Team Manager) : “The team members did a very good job, the drivers have made extraordinary relay. We have been able to demonstrate that we have a winning car in the Pro-Am class, but we were also very well placed in the overall ranking. And this, 1 week after the checkered flag of Le Mans 24 Hours.. “
Frédéric Vervisch : “I’m really happy! Great job. This is really a result that I did not expect when I arrived here at Le Castellet, but I waiting for.

Thierry Boutsen (present at Castellet) : “The whole team did an unbelievable job, barely recovered from the fatigue of Le Mans 24 Hours race. It certainly a good sign for the second half of the season.”

Karim Ojjeh (driver #15) : “Race: A good start without any damage, I kept my position. Just before the end of the stint I had a rear right blow up – Pirelli tires!!!!! I was able to come back to the pits, but the car was too damaged to repair fast enough as the carcass came off of tire and destroyed the inside wheel arch/diffuser … Our big race is at the end of the month with the 24 hours of Spa.”
