Encouraging Winter Cup at All Levels for CRG

At the 2012 Winter Cup, Jonathan Thonon fought again for leadership in KZ2, behind the wheel of his new CRG chassis powered by a Maxter engine. He even won a difficult pre-final, on a track where grip was limited, though he could not repeat his great performance in the final race due to a slightly early start. His CRG Racing Team mates were also there, fighting at the front: Davide Forè was in the top 3 before an unfortunate contact at the start of the pre-final and Mirko Torsellini was in the top 5, ranking 3rd in the pre-final and 4th in the final. Fabian Federer pushed hard to regain ground in the pre-final and set the fastest lap time.

In KF2, Felice Tiene and Jordon Lennox-Lamb kept progressing throughout the weekend. The Italian conquered a second place in a heat and the fastest lap time in the race, then carved his way up to 7th in the final.

A new CRG Racing Team recruit, the Spaniard Alex Palou pulled off an incredible feat, from a distant 83rd place in timed qualifying. First he regained a lot of ground in the heats and then he won the repechage. 28th on the grid in the pre-final, he concluded the Winter Cup with a 12th place, meaning a 71-place improvement during the weekend!
