Speaking after the race, driver Ludovic Loffreda of Lucco Racing team said “Sunday’s race was a bit tight and intense. Most of the drivers, including us, have familiarized the track here so it all boils down to one’s techniques and approach this time.”

The team had been consistently in the top position since the beginning of 2014/15 Radical Middle East Championship in December. “We’ve got two more races to go and we aim to take home the winning title this year. We plan to enhance and work on our strategy to score maximum points for the next races,” stated Loffreda.

Saturday race for 16 laps took Lucco Racing team to 2:04.631 as their best time under Supersports class.

The next Radical race will take place on 12 and 13 March in Yas Marina Circuit, Abu Dhabi.
