MOMO Megatron-DF1 ready for 2nd round of the ELMS in Imola

ELMS - 16/05/2013

TeamRelease

Some four weeks ago the MOMO-Megatron DF1 Team finished the first race in the ELMS (European Le Mans Series), held on the English Silverstone circuit, in a successful third place in the GTC class.

This coming weekend the second ELMS meeting is on the agenda, to be held on the Italian Imola circuit, and the MOMO Megatron DF1 team is once again eagerly looking forward to  clinching  a podium and even victory  in  the GTC class.

With the Audi R8 LMS the young team comprised out of Dylan Derdaele (B), Kuba Giermaziak  (PL) and  Raffi  Bader (CH) are  fully  determined  to  put  in  a fast and tactical race.

“A great deal can happen during a three hour long race”, Kuba Giermaziak commented,  who  last  weekend  had  performed  brilliantly  in  the  Porsche Mobil1 Supercup during the F1 weekend in Barcelona, in which just before the finish he was still lying in 2nd place prior to finally taking the chequered flag in fourth spot.

Dylan  Derdaele  was  also  exceptionally  successful  last  weekend.  During  the second round of the BRCC in Dijon he won the GT Cup class teamed up with his  German  teammate  Kenneth  Heyer  and  the  Belgian  Monegasque  Chris Mattheus and with the Belgium Racing MOMO Megatron Porsche 997 finished in fifth place overall after a three hour endurance race.

“Hopefully  it  will  remain  dry  in  Imola,  as  compared  to  the  Silverstone  race where  the  rain  bucketed  down  obliging  the  race  to  be  flagged  off prematurely. I'm looking forward to Italy”, the highly talented Limburg based driver remarked.

This last week the Swiss Raffi Bader has also been intensively preparing for the tough race in Imola. “I didn't spend much time behind the wheel of the Audi R8  LMS  in  Silverstone  as  the  race  finished behind  the  Safety  Car.  Hopefully  I will have the opportunity to go full out this time under better conditions.”
