Javier Ibran will have a new teammate, fellow countryman Álvaro Fontes, in the second round of the Spanish Endurance championship taking place at the Motorland Aragón, at the wheel of thr Ginetta G55 GT4 entered by Buggy Experience Racing Team.

The Spanish Endurance Championship approaches its second stop of the season and Buggy Experience Racing be on the starting grid with Javier Ibrán who finished on the podium in Barcelona taking second place in the Spanish GT Championship and Michelin Endurance Series and third in the Spanish Endurance Championship. His new team-mate Fontes also has a lot of experience and they will be a strong driver line-up in Alcañiz. Ibrán, after round one, lies third in the drivers´ classification collecting forty-four points in D1.

“I make my debut this season in the series. And I am really looking forward to driving for the very first time this Ginetta G55 GT4. I have such good memories from previous seasons and there is no doubt in my mind that driving this car I will enjoy it even more”, Fontes explains.

The driver born in Málaga also comments “Motorland Aragón is an outstanding racing track. I will try to work hard to adapt my driving style to the car reaching a competitive level”.

His teammate Ibrán, on the other hand, makes the point of “having ambitious goals. In Barcelona I was driving alone, and it is nice to have Álvaro with us here. Let´s see whether it is possible to start winning together in Alcañiz because in Barcelona just a race incident prevented me from winning at the end”.

There are two free practice sessions scheduled on Saturday morning and later, at 14.40, qualifying will take place. On Sunday both races have identical duration, 48 minutes plus one lap, and they are due to start at 10.00 and 14.50.
