Priaulx thrilled at second in season opener
ANDY PRIAULX has expressed his delight at stepping onto the podium in his Tudor United Sportscar Championship debut.
The Guernseyman joined forces with fellow BMW Motorsport drivers Bill Auberlen, Joey Hand and Maxime Martin to bring the No. 55 BMW Z4 GTLM car across the line second in their class at the Rolex 24-hour at Daytona after completing a total of 679 laps of the iconic Daytona International Speedway road course.
'Finishing second is a fantastic way to kick off our USCC campaign,' said Priaulx.
'I put in three solid stints and had a really valuable learning experience getting to know the cars, drivers and track in Daytona.
'That is my first GT race in quite a few years and I am looking forward to the rest of the 2014 championship after this successful start.'
