Spa-Francorchamps, 10-11 September 2022 |
The strategy |
As the pit stop window opened, with the sun peeking through, the AF Corse team immediately recalled
Cassidy, opting for slicks, while Fraga remained on track, climbing to seventh, delaying his tyre change for
a couple of laps. On returning to the track, the number 74 488 GT3 Evo 2020 was twenty-second, ahead of
number 37, both in the virtual to top-ten, considering the teams’ different strategies. With twenty-nine
minutes to the chequered flag, the two Maranello drivers battled neck-and-neck, with Cassidy, fastest in the
first sector during this part of the race, finally claiming twenty-first position with an excellent overtaking
move. |
