Kumpen - Tackling The A1-Ring & Zolder |
In One Weekend |
|
|
Anthony Kumpen will spend the August 18 / 19 weekend racing in the FIA GT Championship at the A1-Ring and in the Castrol Belcar Zolder 24 Hours.
"I don't think it will be a big problem, as long as we get the logistical things sorted out. We have hired a private plane to fly me from Zolder to A1 Ring and vice-versa, and we have arranged to use local airports that are close to both circuits, so it shouldn't be a big issue. Spa was the best 24 hours result I have had this year (8th) but Zolder will be different. It's a round of the Belcar championship and we are favourites to win."
Anthony's exploits will be recorded by a Television Company, who will broadcast a dedicated show after the weekend. "The TV crew will fly with me on my 'mission' so hopefully I can give them something good to report on."
He will be driving Vipers at both events, a Belmondo GTS-R at the A1-Ring and the GLPK version at Zolder
"I won the Zolder 24 hours last year and that was a great victory for me. Many people got to know my name because of that success, and I will be aiming for a repeat of that, so the whole weekend has a lot of significance attatched to it."
