On the South Garda track the NEWMAN Motorsport team, together with its bearer Andrea Filaferro with the Tony Kart material, has been among the great protagonists in the "Mini" since the Qualifying Practice ended with the sixth best time (53.965), climbing the ranking up to the third placed in the Qualifying Heats thanks to two victories, a second and two fourth places in the Eliminatory HEAT (group E).


In the Prefinal A, Andrea becomes the protagonist of a race led to the attack, closing once again on the strong podium of second place, gaining access to the Final. Taken from the second row with the third time, the Friulian driver immediately takes the lead, trying to dictate the pace before the interruption of the race and the exposure of the red flag due to an accident involving several pilots. After about an hour's stop, the race starts again with Andrea Filaferro who crosses the finish line in third place with an arrival at the photo finish "paying" a gap of just 40 thousandths of a second from Eyckmans and 91 thousandths from the winner Al Dhaheri.



"It was a positive weekend where Andrea proved his worth by winning victories and podiums. Too bad for the final victory in the Final, but 10 laps were pulled with three riders in less than 1 tenth. Now we are preparing for La Conca, a track that Andrea really likes "comments Andrea Pedrini.


NEWMAN Motorsport and Andrea Filaferro greet Lonato with 69 points and the fifth place in the general classification. Next round of the International Circuit of La Conca (7-10 March) for the third round of the WSK Super Master Series.
