Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Dumoulin had his best result of the season today at the Toronto Pinty’s Grand Prix. Much like a silent warrior, through performance and respect, the driver of the #04\u00a0Spectra Premium<\/strong>\/ Bernier Cr\u00e9peau \/ Groupe Bellemare \/ MIA car climbed up the ranks from twentieth to fifth place.<\/p>\n

After the trials session, the\u00a0#04\u00a0Spectra Premium<\/strong>\/ Bernier Cr\u00e9peau \/ Groupe Bellemare \/ MIA\u00a0team has modified the settings in order to reach predictable behavior when entering and exiting turns. The car was faster during qualifiers, and this certainly contributed to our success during the race, even despite the incident on the very first lap. A competitor got Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Dumoulin stuck against the wall, causing a tire puncture, and a crooked back suspension. He had to adapt his driving to the car’s behavior with a more used up tire than the other three, as well as the deficient suspension. This incident kept the crew chief, Robin McCluskey, from making valid comparisons between Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Dumoulin’s car and those of the leaders.<\/p>\n

“We had a good start. The #04\u00a0Spectra Premium<\/strong>\/ Bernier Cr\u00e9peau \/ Groupe Bellemare \/ MIA team switched out the tire in record time and a neutralization that occurred at the same time allowed me to be back on track on the leader’s lap. Despite the issues, I was able to optimize the car’s behavior, and we were in a very good position in the final laps. It’s a satisfactory fifth place, and the goal is to make sure it’s performing even better for the Trois-Rivi\u00e8res Grand Prix”, explains the driver of the\u00a0#04\u00a0Spectra Premium<\/strong>\/ Bernier Cr\u00e9peau \/ Groupe Bellemare \/ MIA car.<\/p>\n
