THE NIGHT SHIFT TO END ALL NIGHT SHIFTS
The
#64 @protoncompetition @fordperformance Mustang GT3 finished the Centenary edition of the
#Spa24H P12 in the PRO category after 24 hours of some of the most gruelling racing we have ever witnessed.
In the hands of our amazing works drivers,
@chrismies @f_vervisch and
@dennis_olsen , the Mustang went from 31st at the start, right back into the 50s during the opening stages, clearly struggling with the dry pace (we’re working on that 👊) and missing out on wave arounds during countless full course yellow (FCY) and safety car periods.
But then night fell.
And so did the rain.
The night shift put in by all three drivers and the entire team was incredible. While most of Europe was sleeping, the
#64 Mustang moved up from P53 to P6, thanks to stellar driving and smart strategy calls from the pits.
To even finish this race is an achievement, as 27 cars didn’t, but the Mustang came home P19 overall and P12 in the PRO category.
The pace will come and our team of warriors will be ready.
