Britain happy with two podiums

09 November 2008

A1 Team Great Britain's Danny Watts finished in third position in both the Sprint and Feature races at Chengdu, China. Danny Watts today led A1 Team Great Britain to a double podium finish at the Chengdu International Circuit in China on his debut race weekend for the team. The result rewarded the team with 16 crucial points as it gets its championship campaign underway

Danny Watts commented, "The podiums have to go to the mechanics because they have worked so hard. There's been a huge effort from everyone on the team and I'm so glad that we're going away from the weekend with a big haul of points. It's been a privilege and an honour to drive for Great Britain, I've had a great weekend and hope that I have contributed."

Team boss Katie Clements added, "We cannot be disappointed with two podiums. I have to thank again the entire team for the immense work they have done this weekend and the hours they have put in. It took a superhuman effort to get the car prepared and all that work has paid off today. Danny has done an incredible job for us on his debut, especially considering he hasn't raced a single-seater in more than two years. We are leaving Chengdu as a very happy team and are very excited at the prospect of what we could achieve in Malaysia in two weeks time."
