Battling through the heat to secure points 🔥 Read more about CUPRA's FIA ETCR weekend at Vallelunga here ⬇️ ➡️ ETCR CUPRA mediapartner Autosport
The FIA ETCR took place with temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius every day at the Italian circuit. The asphalt recorded temperatures of 54 degrees Celsius in measurements carried out by Autosport.
"The pace at the start was not what we would have liked, we had two punctures in two of our cars that put us in last place in two races and also some off track,” Serra said. “Thanks to the work of the entire engineering team, we discovered certain points on the track where the tyres were at a higher risk of punctures.”
The result of the crash left the Canadian without points and also his team-mate was not able to race because they share the car which was beyond repair in time for the final round. Later on, the Italian team withdrew its second car from the second final in protest against the lack of safety for their drivers with those tyres.
"As we agreed in the pre-race meeting with the drivers, we decided to go for the finish. Third and fourth place in the final was also good for us, we didn't want to have an accident like Bruno's and drop points," explained Serra about CUPRA’s strategy.
