08 Aug 2018|1,391 views
On a busy weekend for McLaren Automotive customer teams racing around the world, the McLaren 570S GT4 scored its third overall GT4 win of the 2018 British GT season at Brands Hatch and set pole at Road America in Wisconsin. The 650S GT3 driven by Fraser Ross took the Australian GT Championship points lead after scoring two podium finishes in three races in Australia.
The Balfe Motorsport #501 570S GT4 of Graham Johnson and Mike Robinson took a commanding victory in the two-hour race, after quick pit work and a safety car period just before the pit window opened midway through the race, vaulted the team from ninth in GT4 class to take the lead.
In the CTSC race at Road America, Wisconsin, Compass Racing and Factory Driver Paul Holton had a near miss, the team's #76 McLaren 570S GT4 setting pole and leading the race in the second half until Holton's teammate Matt Plumb was forced into retirement after an off in the final minutes. Behind though, the 570S GT4 still enjoyed a strong finish with Motorsports In Action, its example finishing fifth in the hotly-contested GS class, marking the Canadian team's best result of the season.
Over in Australia, the #59 Total Oil / Opti-Coat / Logitech McLaren 650S GT3 now leads the 2018 CAMS Australian GT Championship standings after three frantic sprint races at Sydney Motorsport Park. The 650S GT3, driven by Fraser Ross, fought hard all weekend and managed to secure strong finishes in all three races on the 3.93km-circuit to secure the top spot in the points table heading into the season finale.
