4 HOURS OF SPA FRANCORCHAMPS - THE TITLE IS ABOUT TO COME

Good Sunday evening! Have you spent a good weekend? Lou and his teammates Juan Manuel and Ferdinand for sure had a fantastic weekend, they completed a majestic race with P3. 
It was the first ELMS race for Juan Manuel; it’s fantastic to see him back where he belongs, on a race track. I’m happy to see that he’s building back his career after that horrible crash back in 2019. Ferdinand had a superb start and also managed to overtake three cars before JM’s turn, who was perfectly at ease in his first ELMS experience. Lou even tried to reach the Europol Competition car; despite their P3, they’re getting closer and closer to the title.
Big congratulations to the winners of the races, Hanson, Tappy and Gamble of United Autosport! Next stop: Portimao, in 3 weeks!

6 HOURS OF FUJI - FUJIYAMA IS WATCHING YOU

Finally, the moment came. What am I talking about? The 6 Hours of Fuji, held in one of my favourite countries: Japan! 
Lou landed in Tokyo on Monday and had a lot of fun visiting the crazy capital city of the Land of the Rising Sun. According to his Instagram stories, he visited landmarks such as Akihabara and TeamLab Borderless Museum.
Talking about the race, Japanese fans were very happy to see both the Toyota Hypercars on the highest steps of the podium. Our Prema boys gained P6 in their class and P10 in the general classification; in the first 30 minutes, Lou even managed to bring their Prema-branded Oreca up to P3. Robert and Lorenzo did their best to improve the result, but luck wasn’t so generous to them.
WEC will be back on track in 2 months, with the final 2022 act in Bahrain!
