On the track of Brno Davide Rigon is back behind the wheel of the Ferrari F430 No. 78, BMS Scuderia Italia team for the seventh round of the FIA World GT.
For the first time since the World Davide Rigon without leaving a trace points, in fact the whole weekend has had to fight with a car very nervous and difficult to drive. Early tests Rigon and team-mate Camathias have worked hard to find the right setup, but unfortunately the results did not arrive. At the end of the qualifying session the car No. 78 marked the only time of 10 category.
Since the early laps of the race Rigon starts to push up the heat recover position and, when the pit stop, leaving the car to his fellow team in seventh position. At the end of two hours of the race Ferrari No. 78 cut the finish line in tenth position, behind crew Mullen / Niarchos.
"Unfortunately this weekend did not go as hoped." Commented Davide Rigon. "Since the first free practice we had some problems that have been repeated even in the race and that we do not have permission to speak to the fullest. In race I tried to push the maximum to recover, managing to bring the car up to seventh place. Now do the next round in land on French circuit of Nogaro, scheduled for next October 5 "
