Yes to Road Tourism something was missing to live a special weekend in Buenos Aires, with Guillermo Ortelli y Omar Martínez back on the track and the return of Agustín Canapinowas that the record of the Autodromo Juan and Oscar Gálvez and that was achieved by a debutant in the matter of poles in the TC. With a record of 1:29.375 and when there was no more time left in the classification, Facundo Chapur (Dodge) snatched the 1st place from the four-time champion from Reef by just 70 thousandths, who will go ahead in one of the series this Sunday (from 10:05). In the other it will be Agustín Martínezthe son of Guri.
On the tenth round of the championship, the last of the regular stage, the Córdoban driver achieved his first pole in the category to which he finally managed to enter this year after much fighting for a place and in which his best position in a classification had been the second place of Río Hondo Hot Springs.
“Taking pole at Gálvez is a dream. When I saw that there were 20 seconds left I told myself that I had to make another attempt, even if it was difficult for me to finish in the lake. It was a perfect lap, I didn’t have an ounce more,” Chapur confessed to Radio Championsafter giving Dodge its first pole of the year but the second consecutive in Buenos Aires after the one achieved by Marcos Quijada last year.
“I wanted to bet on the Chevy because although the new generation cars are much superior, the little drag and aerodynamic balance that the Chevy has can be beneficial on this circuit. We were fortunate, because we have a fault that has us harmed: it is like running out of fuel. If we don’t solve it, in the race I will have to stop on the 3rd lap,” lamented Canapino, who arrived on Wednesday from the United States, after terminating his contract with the IndyCar Juncos Hollinger Racing, on Friday he tested for the only time the Canning Motorsports car and this Saturday he had the provisional pole in his hands.
At 82 thousandths, meanwhile, Martínez remained with Toyota and will thus animate the third series, along with Julián Santero (Ford Mustang), while Benvenuti (Chevrolet Camaro) and Trucco (Dodge Challenger) will accompany Chapur and Canapino, respectively.
Although several drivers were close to the fastest lap, those who perhaps suffered the most were the drivers fighting for the Gold Cup, which will begin in San Luis on the weekend of September 14 and 15. The track, of course, improved as the tests progressed and it was the last group that made the most profit. Thus, for example, of the five already classified, Santero was the one who placed best (sixth), while Urcera, the championship leader, was in a distant 44th place, still behind the already retired Martínez, who at 58 years showed validity with his 27th place and also when he avoided contact with Sebastián Abella, who spun in front of him. He didn’t have a good time, on the other hand, Ortelli, who had to change the engine of the Camaro that will pass into the hands of Canapino the next date, continued on a curve and got lost and finished without times.
On Sunday the activity will begin with the three series of five laps from 10:05, 10:30 and 10:55. Finally, at 1:20 p.m. there will be the final of 25 laps or 50 minutes. Public TV will televise.
