Z4s Score A Class Win And A Podium Finish In France

Andy Priaulx, Henry Hassid, and Jesse Krohn in the #52 Marc VDS G4 GTE finished second in the LMGTE class in the four-hour European Le Mans Series race run on Circuit Paul Ricard in Le Castellet France. They followed a Ferrari F458 Italia across the line.

Franck Perera, Eric Dermont, and Dino Lunardi won the GTC class in the #59 TDS Racing Z4 GT3. It was the team’s second win of the season.

The podium finish propels the Marc VDs trio into second in the LMGTE standings with one race remaining, and extends the GTC drivers’ points lead of Perera, Dermont, and Lunardi.

The season finale will be a four-hour race on the Estoril circuit in Portugal on October 18.—Brian S. Morgan
