For the third year in a row, the #47 WeatherTech Canada <\/strong>\/ Groupe Bellemare team has crossed the finish line in second place on the circuit of the Edmonton International Raceway. Louis-Philippe Dumoulin has demonstrated all of his skills and fighter tenacity by fiercely defending his position throughout the entire 300-lap event which was punctuated by nine neutralizations.<\/p>\n

The mechanical team has done exemplary work, especially having had to change the carburetor and engine of the #47 WeatherTech Canada <\/strong>\/ Groupe Bellemare car. During today’s race, it was with great efficiency that Billy Burns, crew chief, has deployed a winning strategy. In fifth place on the starting grid and spending the majority of his time in the top-3, Louis-Philippe Dumoulin was able to skillfully maneuver his way through the multiple incidents that occurred in the race.<\/p>\n

“The boys have worked really hard on the car yesterday, and I’m very proud of them. We were forced to reintegrate a used engine which had already been used for six races. I was competitive, and the strategy was to make sure we had good positioning for restarts, and to stay in the top-3 to finish strong. It’s not over, we want to win races, and we’re taking it one race at a time,” shares the determined driver of the #47 Weather<\/strong>Tech<\/strong> Canada <\/strong>\/ Groupe Bellemare car.<\/p>\n
