Visteon/Patrick Racing driver Oriol Servia has plenty of momentum as he heads
into this weekend's Grand Prix Americas on the temporary street circuit in
Miami, Florida in search of his first career CART victory.
In the last two races Servia has piloted the #20 Visteon/Patrick Racing
entry, which is powered by Ford-Cosworth and uses a Lola chassis with
Bridgestone tires, to a career high tying second place finish at Montreal and
third place showing at Denver. This is the first time in his CART career that
Servia has finished on the podium in consecutive races. The talented 29-year-old
resident of Miami, Florida would like nothing better than to continue and even
improve on the streak by capturing his first CART victory this weekend in front
of his friends.
"The Visteon/Patrick Racing Team has a lot of momentum heading into this
weekend and hopefully, that will help us to achieve our goal of winning some
races this year," Servia said. "We have been knocking on the door, but it just
hasn't open all the way for us. It would be very special for me to earn my first
CART victory this weekend. I have lived in Miami for several years and it would
be nice to win my first race in front of my friends. It would also be special
because the Visteon/Patrick Racing Team has worked so hard and been so close
that we really deserve this win, for the team and our sponsor Visteon," Servia
explained.
