Alec Udell Thoughts |
About Zandvoort: “This weekend we return to Zandvoort, the first track on the SRO GT4 European calendar that I’ve been to before. It’s exciting as it’s also a home circuit for the MDM Motorsports team. The track is a challenging old school circuit. Qualifying will be important to make sure we maximize our starting position because that’s tough to pass. We’ve got some good data from our test there in March and we’re looking to continue with the momentum from the past few events.“
