2009-07-16
Ho-Pin Tung will race alongside former F1-worldchampion Jacques Villeneuve in the 24 hours race of Spa-Francorchamps, on 25th and 26th of July. The young Chinese will race in a Mosler MT900R, to be fielded by Gravity Racing International, in the G2 class of the FIA GT Championship. Beside the Chinese hero and the Canadian legend the wheel will be taken by Vincent Radermacker and Loris Sordi.
‘I am looking forward to give everything, as my three teammates, to make our entry into a success,’ says Ho-Pin while he is preparing for another Belgian event, the two races in the Superleague Formula, this weekend at the Zolder circuit. ‘The track in the Ardennes is the dream of every racing driver, as it is for me. It will prove to be very difficult to race 24 hours on the limit at this circuit, but I am ready to face the challenge.’
