Montermini-Filippi back on track in Portimao
After a very exciting start of the season in Le Castellet, Villorba Corse gets back on track in the 2013 International GT Open at the Autódromo do Algarve over the weekend of May 12. On the demanding Portuguese track the Venetian team led by Raimondo Amadio will aim to confirm itself as one of the title-contender squad with Andrea Montermini and Luca Filippi at the wheel of their Ferrari 458 GT2. The talented Villorba crew, capable of two stunning comebacks in the first round of the series, will have to maintain first place among Super GT cars and chase the top of the overall standings. It will be a tough job as Portimao has become one of the most appreciated track among drivers and around 30 cars will be expected in Portugal for a round valid also for the Spanish / Iber GT Championship. Above all, however, the former F1 driver from Modena and the young GP2 winner from Cuneo will start the weekend with a very high time handicap to be paid during race-1 mandatory pit-stop because of their great results at Paul Ricard.
