The 21 year old from London, tested the V8 powered silhouette touring cars in Germany following an impressive first year with Kremer in the FIA Sportscar Championship. At the end of the day, Sam lapped a wet Oschersleben track nearly a second quicker than anyone else.<BR> <BR> "I've had a great time today", said Hancock, " and although these cars really are totally different to anything I've driven before, once you settle in they're good fun to drive - and they sound superb! I'm mainly here today to help a friend, but I've been really impressed by what I have seen of the Championship. My priority for 2002 is to build on a successful first year of driving prototype sportscars, but if the right offer came along to race in this as well, I'd be delighted."<BR> </FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
