Bridgestone Production Cars Tame Aldo Scribante

Bridgestone Production Cars Tame Aldo Scribante

Date: 2012-05-02
The Bridgestone Production Car Championship put up some close racing at Aldo Scribante this past weekend.

Graeme Nathan, IndyOil VW GTI, blitzed the Class T competition, qualifying a full second ahead of the rest of the class. Michael van Rooyen, Williams Hunt Opel Astra OPC, was the best of the rest, qualifying marginally ahead of Jacques Joubert, IndyOil VW GTI. Up next, was Gennaro Bonafede, Ferodo VW GTI, ahead of the Castrol Ford Focus ST teammates, Gary Formato and Shaun Duminy.

In Race 1 Graeme Nathan left nothing to chance, taking an unchallenged Class T victory. Behind him, Joubert managed to get ahead of van Rooyen on the first lap and spent the next seven laps defending the position. Van Rooyen has happy to take the final podium spot ahead of Bonafede, Duminy and Formato. Formato was up to fourth place, before his alternator stopped working, he limped home a lap behind.

In Race 2 there was some start line confusion in Class T and although Bonafede was meant to take up pole position, van Rooyen crossed the line first. By the end of the first lap, van Rooyen led Bonafede and Nathan. Nathan wasted no time, moving his way into the race lead by the third lap and went on to take his second unchallenged victory of the day. The positions remained fairly static after that, with van Rooyen crossing the line ahead of Bonafede and Duminy. Unfortunately Gary Formato did not start the race.

In Race 3 Nathan was the Class T pole sitter and took an early lead from van Rooyen, Duminy, Bonafede, Formato and Joubert. Van Rooyen took the race lead on lap five and was delighted to take his first win of the season. Nathan took second, with Bonafede passing Formato for third. Duminy ended fifth, with Joubert sixth.

The points standing have Graeme Nathan on 80, Gary Formato 69 and Shaun Duminy on 51. The next round of the championship will take place at Zwartkops on 26 May.
