In the past
weekend the European and Italian Challenge series made their
2007 premieres. Some Scandinavian drivers
took a chance and used this event as a warm-up
for the coming races in FSC.
Morten Nielsen (161) represented Autoropa and the Danish dealer had
Richard Bonnichsen (132) and the newly established Formula Racing
Team in place at the very fast and furious Monza
track.
Both of them tried their luck in the Coppa Shell division and in race
one Nielsen did not finish while Bonnichsen came in 14th out of
the 37 cars on the grid.
The second race was one of confusion because of the rain suddenly came,
but Morten Nielsen managed to lead the race on lap 5 & 6 (see the
file), but due to many spin-offs and following
Pace Car laps, Nielsen lost in pit stop and tyre
strategies. He ended in 13th place while
Bonnichsen came in as 26.
