Coates Hire Racings Nick Percat is looking to build on his sensational Porsche Carrera Cup debut at the Clipsal 500 a fortnight ago, at this weekends second round of the Porsche Carrera Cup at the Formula 1 Rolex Australian Grand Prix.

After qualifying on pole position in Adelaide, Percat finished the three races with a second place and a pair of thirds to finish the weekend third overall, and third in the championship after the first of seven rounds.

While Adelaide born Percat has been living in Melbourne for the past three years, he hasnt raced on the Grand Prix circuit since winning both Formula Ford races there in 2009.

Speaking prior to the Grand Prix, Percat said:  I live near Albert Park and often take my dog there for a walk in the parklands area.

Over the past few weeks Ive watched the circuit slowly rise out of the ground for this weekends Formula 1 Rolex Australian Grand Prix.

I really enjoy racing on street circuits and have tasted a bit of success on them. They test a driver more than a normal racetrack, as you have to be so precise all the time. I cant wait to get out onto the Albert Park Grand Prix track in the Coates Hire Racing Porsche Carrera.
