Klaas Zwart unstoppable at Autodromo di Monza

Klaas Zwart enjoyed a fruitful weekend at the high speed circuit of Monza with an eye on the general classification of the BOSS GP. The 2010 champion extended his narrow lead over his biggest rival Marijn van Kalmthout with two impressive victories. “Monza really is a fantastic circuit,” said the two-time winner after the races. “We recorded some incredible top speeds. I’m pretty sure that all BOSS GP drivers drove around with a big smile on their face this weekend.” Ingo Gerstl recorded a double win in the Formula Class, while Karl-Heinz Becker did the same in the Masters Division to near Norbert Gruber in the standings.



Only two weeks ago, the Grand Prix of Italy took place at Monza. This weekend, Klaas Zwart recorded a fastest lap of 1:31.521 seconds at the 5793 metres long track to show that his Jaguar R5 F1 from 2004 has what it takes to compete with the modern cars. Lewis Hamilton recorded a fastest lap time of 1:26.187 during the 2011 Grand Prix at Monza and was only five seconds faster than Zwart. “The tyres that we use in the BOSS GP are several seconds per lap slower than the Pirellis that are used in the Formula 1, so we’re not too far behind them,” commented the satisfied Zwart.
