GREAT! THOMAS' DEBUT AND VICTORY IN LMP2!

DURING LMS IN BARCELONA THE ITALIAN TRIO AZZURRO (BIAGI BOBBI PICCINI) WINS!

Great victory for Thomas today. It was April 5th 2003 when he first drove in GT1 Ferrari 550 Maranello on Montmelò racetrack togther with Matteo Bobbi and arrived first. After exactly 6 years the story repeats. After this long stop they have met again driving Lola B08/80 of Racing Box Team, together with Andrea Piccini crossing the finishing line first on the 1000 Km in Barcelona.

These are Thomas words just after the end of the race: "It's like a dream, Matteo and I have a strong friendship and also a strong estimation of each other. Going back to success together always during our debut, that's incredible! Just figure out that I had only had 30 laps in Misano 10 days ago with this extremely well shaped Lola and that's where I got to know I should drive! Many thanks to Ferdinando Geri and all Racing Box for the faith in me. Our engeneer Andrea Adamo made a great job and also Andrea Piccini has proven to be an excellent team mate and Michelin provided us with superlative tyres.

I'll be driving all night long, Paul Ricard direction, where I'll made another last-minute press release tomorrow"
