Representing Türkiye in the GT4 European Series for 7 tours, Supsan-sponsored Borusan Otomotiv Motorsport (BOM) brought home two cups from the second-leg races held at the Misano Track in Italy. BOM co-pilots Pedro Ebrahim and Yağız Gedik secured a place on the winners’ podium in the second race held on 19 May; Ebrahim also took first place in the Rookie Cup on the same day.
Getting the first day of the series’ second-leg races off to a flying start, the Borusan Otomotiv Motorsport team saw co-pilots Pedro and Yağız climb from 11th place to 5th while co-pilots Berkay and Gabriele ended the day rising from 8th to 4th place. Both vehicles were beset by tire problems towards the end of the race, and the pilots ended the first day without seeing the chequered flag.
Competing in the second race on 19 May with car number 11, Yağız Gedik and Pedro Ebrahim started in 10th place and finished in 3rd, gifting Türkiye a very meaningful win on 19 May Commemoration of Atatürk, Youth and Sports Day. Racing in car number 12, co-pilots Berkay and Gabriele started in 9th place, rising to 1st with their skilled driving but finished in 24th place after their front left tire burst following a collision on the last lap.
Pedro Ebrahim finished the high-octane weekend in 3rd place on the winners’ podium in addition to being 1st in the Rookie Cup on the same day, completing the second leg of the season with two trophies.
The 3rd Leg of the GT4 European Series will take place at the Spa Francorchamps Track in Belgium over 29-30 June. The races will be broadcast live on S Sport and Sport+.
