The next outing for the Signature Motorsport MINI John Cooper Works Team is at their home tack at Zwartkops, Pretoria on 17th June The MINIs are now competitive and we have another six rounds to go”. It was a very physical race with quite a bit of bumping and barging. In the second race I was hung out to dry on the outside of Potters and pretty much everyone came past me. I had a decent first race and climbed to fourth at the finish after some great racing against Keagan and Mandla. A competitor blocked me on my fastest qualifying lap and destroyed two laps for me in the process.

We now know we can compete with our rivals over the rest of the year”.Ĭhris Shorter (Champion MINI): “I was chasing times during the free practice sessions and made improvements all the time. I never expected two wins though, and coming through from the back of the field in race two win again was great fun. Qualifying on pole gave me a huge confidence boost as I knew we had the car and the speed to compete. He had a few bumps and bruises as he fought his way back again into fifth position.īradley Liebenberg (Ferodo MINI): “The team has done so much work and these wins are for them. On the final lap, he pressured masters into braking late and undercut his rival to emerge in the lead which he held to the end, crossing the line just 0.386 seconds ahead after ten thrilling laps of GTC2 racing.Ĭhris was pushed wide through Potters Pass and was hung out to dry as the field swept past. He passed Chris and went hunting his former team-mate and race leader Keagan Masters (VW Golf). Brad made a good start and quickly disposed of Trevor Bland (VW Golf), while Mandla Mdakane (VW Golf) and Dayne Angel (Honda Civic Type R) tangled at Cocabana Corner and went off, opening the road for another attack on the leaders. Race two featured an inverted grid, so Brad found himself at the back of the field in eighth, while Chris lined up in sixth place again. A good start saw Chris hang on the lead group and as the race wore on, he applied pressure to the factory Volkswagen team who faltered and he swept through into a fighting fourth place finish, his best yet in the Champion MINI. With two laps to go, Liebenberg braked late and ran wide which allowed Weyers to close up to the MINI’s rear bumper in a tense race to the flag.Ĭhris Shorter, in the Champion MINI John Cooper Works had his qualifying runs spoilt by deliberate blocking by a rival and accordingly booked sixth place of the starting grid. Liebenberg let the gap to the leader grow as he found his rhythm and pounced on lap four and pulled away. It was a hard-fought victory for Liebenberg, for he was passed by Kosie Weyers (Chevrolet Cruze) under braking for Turn Three. The Ferodo MINI not only qualified on pole position by a slender 0.076 seconds over its nearest rival, but led the first heat at the ultra-fast Eastern Cape circuit to win by two seconds.
