The weekend just spent at the Long Beach circuit on 13-15 April was truly unforgettable.
The Tr3 racing team prepared the Ferrari 488 GT3 perfectly, allowing Daniel to be the fastest of the 22 drivers registered for the race since the first free practice on Friday.
In qualifying, due to the traffic on the track in the streets of the city, Daniel was unable to repeat the times of Friday, closing the qualifying session in P3.
The race, which started on Sunday 15th, was simply a masterpiece.
After a few laps from the start, taking advantage of a problem with the Mercedes of Morad who was second, Mancinelli managed to get behind the Ferrari #61 of Vilander and then, after a period of safety car due to an accident on the track, with a great overtaking at the end of the main straight he managed to get in first position, conquering the highest step of the podium in the Grand Prix of Long Beach.
“It was really amazing and exciting to win.” – Daniel said – “It was not easy starting from the third position on the grid. My Ferrari 488 GT3 prepared by the Tr3 Racing team was exceptional, and the large crowd cheering from the stands gave a great boost to the great result. Great result for Ferrari with a shotgun. I would like to thank the whole team for the success. For the next appointment we will be in Bowmanville (Canada), next 18-20 May, for the third round of the season.”
