Promising Début For JVB In His GP Chassis.


At the latest round of the 2010 Top Half series held in the BOP on the weekend of the 15th- 16th May, John Van Bommel had a great debut finishing 2nd in what you would call contrasting days.

Saturday started out very strong for the 17 year old Van Bommel in very changing conditions even thunderstorms throughout the day. Only having had the chassis for 3 days and not knowing where to start with a wet set up, the Aussis Butcher race team just slapped on the wets and went for a run. Van Bommel was instantly fast.
By the end of the day and minimal changes to the GP chassis, Van Bommel was the class act of the field, by 4 tenths.

Sunday then came. What a different day this was, not a cloud in the sky. This meant back to the drawing board for the Aussis Butcher/GP team. With no testing in the dry the day before, the team quickly decided to make this day a test day. John ended up 2nd overall for the weekend with finishes of: 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 7th (from 4 random starting grids throughout the heat races), then 2nd again in the final with a very competitive field of Rotax Max Lights.

John and the Aussis Butcher team are looking forward to working with N-Zed Motorsport and the GP Team in working on a winning package.
