NCMC Client, Racecar Driver Alexander
Rossi Scores First Win in IFM
Brussels, Belgium, June
24, 2009 -
Alexander Rossi, having just joined ISR
Racing, made history over the weekend when he became the first American
to win an International Formula Master race. The 17-year-old from Nevada
City, California, dominated race two at Brno in the Czech
Republic
to elevate himself to fifth place in the championship standings.
Alexander leapfrogged
ahead of pole-sitter Nicolas Maulini at the start and then disappeared
up the road, setting the fastest lap of the race on lap four.
“I have not won since
Mexico City last December, it feels great to win again,” said Alexander.
“Everything went very smoothly and it was nice to create a little bit of
history by becoming the first American to win in Formula Masters. ISR is
very capable with 3 years experience with the IFM car. Our speed was
there all weekend in the wet and dry, we are planning on many more
victories before the year is out.”
Rossi’s victory was also
ISR’s maiden win in the series, much to the joy of team principal, Igor
Salaquarda. “We have been trying to win a race for three years,”
Salaquarda said. “So I’m very happy to have finally achieved it.
Alexander has made quite an impact on our team. He is a very good driver
and I find it very hard to remember that he’s only 17 years old.”
RACE: 19 laps
Grid 2, Finish 1st,
Fastest Lap
The key to Alexander’s
victory was his start. He jumped ahead of Maulini on the run to the
first corner and never looked back. Unlike the first race, ISR went to a
full dry set-up which allowed Alexander to immediately open up a gap,
setting the fastest lap of the race on lap four, enabling him to deliver
his true abilities at ISR Racing.
His closest challenger,
Josef Kral, was forced to slow in the middle of the race with a broken
front wing element, which allowed Alexander to ease his pace and simply
bring his car home to the finish.
