Jan Magnussen vil på podiet i Le Mans Cup-finale

Danskeren er optimistisk forud for finalen i Michelin Le Mans Cup på Portimao, hvor han sammen med GMB Motorsport vil forsøge at slutte sæsonen med et topresultat.

Efter en række udfordrende afdelinger af Michelin Le Mans Cup lykkedes det for Jan Magnussen og teamkammerat Lars Engelbrekt at slutte lige udenfor podiet i femte afdeling af mesterskabet på Spa-Francorchamps. Fjerdepladsen på den belgiske Formel 1-bane i september er makkerparrets foreløbigt bedste resultat denne sæson – men måske bliver dét slået i den kommende weekend, hvor sjette og sidste afdeling afvikles på Portimao.

– Vi er ret positive. Bilen føles bedre end på de foregående baner, og vi har været med helt oppe blandt de hurtigste GT3-biler i de indledende testsessions. Det er svært at pege på, hvad der helt konkret er årsagen til, at vi nu umiddelbart har den fart, som vi har manglet tidligere, men det stiller os i hvert fald i en god position inden weekenden. Hvis vi kan holde tempoet i de næste sessions og køre en god kvalifikation, så er det ikke umuligt, at vi kan være med til at køre om et podie. Sådan et resultat ville være fantastisk at slutte året af med, ikke mindst for teamet, som har knoklet enormt hele sæsonen for at give os de bedste redskaber at arbejde med, lyder det fra Jan Magnussen.

Finalen i 2023-udgaven af Michelin Le Mans Cup blev skudt i gang med de første træningssessions torsdag den 19. oktober og følges op at yderligere træning samt kvalifikation lørdag den 21. oktober. Det 110 minutter lange Le Mans Cup-ræs flages grønt lørdag den 22. oktober klokken 09.00 lokal tid – det er klokken 10.00 i Danmark. Løbet kan følges live på YouTube.
