Sixth in Qatar. Fifth in Imola. On pole at Spa. And \u00ab only ninth at Spa. A result certainly correct with a grid of 23 cars, but it does not allow them to defend their chances for pole position. This ninth position in qualifying in Le Mans did not allow the Iron Dames to secure a spot in the hyperpole.<\/p>\n

On board the Lamborghini number 85, Michelle Gatting claims to have given it her all, but the Dane ultimately fell short by 30 thousandths of the Top 8. On my best lap, I saw some gravel at the exit of the S Porsches. I thought to myself, “if I keep my foot down, I don’t know what could happen.” So, I eased off a bit and lost a few tenths because I wasn’t sure of the grip. That’s why we’re not in the Hyperpole.<\/p>\n

The problem of traffic<\/h2>\n

The Iron Lady believes that there was potential to go even further, since the Iron Lynx car, which is also a Lamborghini, achieved the fourth fastest time in qualifying. \u00ab We will focus on the race. \u00bb<\/p>\n

The trio also addressed an important point. Traffic management. They pointed out the lack of respect from Hypercars when they arrive at full speed behind the GT3s. \u00ab We really have to be careful. In braking zones, the Hypercars cut in front of us \u00bb, complains Rahel Frey. The problem with this maneuver is that the GT3s have ABS and can brake later. This can put them in difficulty in these sequences.<\/p>\n

Comments shared by Tom Van Rompuy, driver of Corvette #81. \u00ab They are very aggressive. There is not much respect. They act as if we are not there. They always try to push us off the track. It adds a bit of stress to the race. But over time, you get used to it. \u00bb<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
