It was really great to take a phone call just now and simply say ‘We won!' We were so close at the last round, and to come here in these conditions, which are hardly ideal, and win, is very pleasing. I’m over the moon. <BR> <BR> "Kelvin (Burt) drove a brilliant stint. The safety car wasted all his hard work but even so, it all fell into place in the end. We may have lost a big advantage but Marino (Franchitti) drove a superbly controlled and very mature race to complete the job. He was under tremendous pressure, but he came through it without a hitch."<BR> <BR> Perhaps the irony wasn't lost on Paul Robe that one of his former charges, the Hayles Racing Viper, took the GT win on the day that his team won GTO honours.<BR> <BR> <BR> <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>
