ADAC GT Masters: Kujala is on the Junior podium

After Zandvoort races, all standings changed for Bonaldi Motorsport: in particular, Patrick Kujala, who drives in couple with Milos Pavlovic, got the satisfaction to obtain the third place in the Junior standings in Race 2…

The very difficult races in Zandvoort, marked out by unpredictable weather conditions and anguishing pull-out, allowed Bonaldi Motorsport to change all the championship standings and the Finnish driver, Patrick Kujala, to obtain his first season podium in the Junior standings. In fact, his tenth position gained during the last lap of Race 2, together with the Serbian driver Milos Pavlovic, let Kujala place on the third step of the podium in the Junior standings and obtain considerable positions in the standings as well. Now Patrick is only three points away from his team mate Emanuele Zonzini’s tenth position. Zonzini had a bad luck in this Dutch round where he could only obtain a unique point for the Junior standings. The four points gained during these races keep Bonaldi Motorsport on their fifteenth position in the Team standings.

This was a difficult weekend for everybody: in Race 2 we decided to pass to rain tyres: it was fifty-fifty. At the end, we could obtain the podium in the Junior standings.

The weekend in Zandvoort was extremely difficult and unlucky. We gained the absolute tenth position and the Junior podium but there results do not, however, render the quality of our team. If we were luckier, we would reap the benefits of our team hard work.
