There
is no time for Renger to take a holiday. Last weekend, he had a lot
of fun when he took part in the Benelux Racing League during the
Rizla Racing Days in Assen, the Netherlands, and on Monday, he was
back at his base in Milton Kynes. During the last two days, he has
undergone intensive testing in a Formula 1 race simulator. Today, he
is attending promising sponsor meetings in London with an eye on the
next stage in his career and tomorrow, he will begin training at
Silverstone.
“I have rarely had such a busy programme as I
have this year. I think it is great taking part in the Euroseries,
racing in England, guest races in the Porsche Supercup and the BRL
and also a lot of testing and development work at a number of
different circuits throughout Europe. Although I have not been able
to take part in the entire series in England, I've still got a chance
of winning the title. I am currently in third place in the
championship, despite having driven for the benefit of my teammate
Walter Grubmuller on a number of occasions. Over the coming three
weekends, I will try to make up the difference with pure speed. You
never know what might happen”, said an elated Renger van der Zande.
