Team Abu Dhabi-Proton Racing finished second at round five of the FIA World Endurance Championship, the 6 Hours of Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas.
The crew of UAE circuit racing champion Khaled Al Qubaisi, Germany’s Christian Ried and 24 Hours of Le Mans winner Earl Bamber of New Zealand drove the no. 88 Porsche 911 RSR in the LMGTE Am class.
Technical issues kept the team out of qualifying, so they started the race from the back of the grid. They fought their way back to second, and Bamber set the fastest lap in class.
I’m very happy with the car the team and the result.
