Christian Klien startet am Sonntag von der Pole in Mugello

13.07.2013: Ex-Formel 1-Star Christian Klien wurde in seinem ersten AutoGP Rennen in




Ex-Formel 1-Star Christian Klien wurde in seinem ersten AutoGP Rennen in Mugello trotz krummer Lenkung Achter und startet in Lauf zwei am Sonntag von der Pole Position. Zele Racing Teamkollege Tamas Kiss wurde guter Fünfter.
 

Der 30–jährige Vorarlberger gab am Samstag sein Debüt für das österreichische Zele Racing Team in der AutoGP World Series und fuhr mit einem heftigen Defekt in die Punkte. „Christian wurde nach dem Start in Kurve eins vom (Gesamtführenden) Kimiya Sato gerammt. Danach war die Lenkung am Wagen krumm, aber Christian fightete hart und holte sich noch die Sonntags-Pole“, resümierte Teamchef Michael Zele.
 

Klien hielt auch mit angeschlagenem Wagen das Tempo des Feldes mit, kam immer besser in Schuss und belohnte sich mit Platz 8, was die Pole Position für den sonntägigen Lauf bedeutet. „Es war schade, dass mich Sato gleich zu Beginn rammte, aber es war ein Rennunfall. Dennoch hatte ich Spaß und werde morgen von der Pole natürlich voll attackieren“, so der Ex-Formel-1-Star.
 

Teamkollege Tamas Kiss bestätige erneut sein Talent und wurde in einem chaotischen Rennen guter Fünfter. „Leider hatte ich nach meinem Boxenstopp ernorme Vibrationen, sonst wäre ich wohl noch weiter nach vorne gekommen. Aber es ist eine gute Ausgangsposition für morgen“, so der gebürtige Ungar.
 

Zele Racing bestreitet seine zweite Saison in der AutoGP und holte heuer bereits einen Sieg, zwei weitere Podiumsplätze und drei Pole Positions.
