Fun and a podium finish for Renger van der Zande
Renger van der Zande had a very enjoyable weekend in Assen, the Netherlands, where he took part in the Benelux Racing League at the TT circuit. The driver from Nijmegen had a lot of fun in this touring car class and finished the weekend on the podium.
Published: Sunday 9 August, 2009
“I
have a big grin on my face every time I get out of that car”,
laughed Renger at the end of the race. “I took part in this class
because I think it is fun and I was not disappointed at all this
weekend. You can have a really good fight in these cars. A bit of
pushing and shoving is normal, which is quite different from Formula
3 racing, where you would easily lose a wing."
“I
finished fourth in the first race, but I received a penalty because I
allegedly drove too roughly and I, therefore, started the second race
from tenth place on the grid. From that position, I fought to get
myself a place on the podium and that was, of course, great fun. I
really enjoyed this weekend.”
