Miloš third in the world!
Miloš Pavlović finished this year’s appearance in the “Lamborghini Super Trofeo” championship in style, by winning third place with his teammate Alessi Ruffini at the “World Final” race, which was held in Spain at the Jerez track over the weekend!
The competition was held in variable weather conditions, and key points were won by Pavlović and Ruffini on Saturday, in the first race of the “World Finals”, which featured 42 crews from the European, Asian and United States championships. The Italian started from a distant, 39th position, where he remained until the driver was replaced, and then Pavlović, in his recognizable style, very quickly made up 18 positions on a technically demanding and narrow track. That was enough for third place in the Pro-Am class, ten points and a new podium this season!
For the race on Sunday, our ace achieved the eighth starting position in qualifying, and the first in the class, however he handed over the car to Ruffini to continue the 50-minute race in third place. The Italian, for whom this is his first season in the “Lamborghini Super Trofeo” competition, was unable to keep up with Miloš’s pace and very quickly fell down the order without a chance for a high ranking, but in the end it turned out that Miloš’s great starting position made a crucial difference in the overall ranking. Namely, as the fastest in the qualifications in the Pro-Am class, Pavlović won an additional point, which was decisive for the tandem of the ASR racing team to win third place in the final standings of the “World Finals”!
Previously, on Thursday and Friday last week, two races of the last, sixth round of the European “Super Trofeo” championship were run on the same track, where Pavlović and Rufini scored points in both races. They finished respectively fifth and fourth in the Pro- Am class.
At the end of the season, the Pavlović-Ruffini tandem finished the “Lamborghini Super Trofeo Europe” championship in the fourth position in the Pro-Am class, with a total of 68.5 points. Without the technical issue in Barcelona they would have finished in third position in the championship.
“THIS WAS A VERY CHALLENGING YEAR AND I THINK WE FINISHED IT BETTER THAN what we thought WAS POSSIBLE! ALESSIO (RUFFINI) WHO I SHARED THE CAR WITH IS AN ABSOLUTE NEWBIE, THIS WAS HIS FIRST COMPETITIVE YEAR AND WE MANAGED TO FINISH FOURTH IN EUROPE AND THIRD IN THE WORLD FINAL WHICH IS, HONESTLY, A FEAT! IT’S A BIG SUCCESS FOR US, CONSIDERING HIS EXPERIENCE. THANKS TO THE TEAM FOR AN EXCELLENTLY PREPARED CAR, FAST AND ALMOST PERFECT ON EVERY OCCASION. I AM VERY HAPPY ABOUT THIS RESULT AND I CAN FINALLY BREATHE AND REST FOR THE CONTINUATION OF MY PROGRAM UNTIL THE END OF THIS YEAR.”.
