Formula Master: Michael Ammermüller claimed his first ever win

By ,

From Formula Master Championship Michael Ammermüller claimed his and the Iris Project team's first ever Formula Master win in round ten of the Series today, at Brands Hatch, England. Starting from third, the German overtook second-place man Michele Caliendo at the start before being promoted to the lead when ISR's Tim Sandtler spun out of the race on lap six following a safety car period. Scuderia Famà's Daniel Mancinelli secured his maiden Formula Master podium with a second place on his first outing. The Italian also scored the team's first points this season, finishing fourth yesterday. JD Motorsport's Chris van der Drift ensured his lead in the Drivers Classification stayed healthy with a third place finish, having started in eighth place. The New Zealand driver fought hard to keep his place from Trident Racing's Harald Schlegelmilch, who climbed from P14 on the grid to a fourth place finish. Schlegelmilch ran as high as third in the 28-lap race but a failed move to pass Mancinelli gifted van der Drift the position. Best rookie went to Ammermüller thanks to his winning drive, whilst Schlegelmilch and Núńez's respective fourth and seventh place finishes awarded them the best team-mates accolade for today.
