The second stage of ring racing championship GT Cup 2024 held by SBER took place at “Igora Drive” track in the Leningrad Oblast.
The racing team “Sportcar Racing Team” that includes Moscow Polytech students who performed a range of complex technical tasks participated in two offline racing competitions Porsche Sport Challenge with their cars Porsche 911 GT3 and Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport.
The northern capital held real tests for all participants of the championship: the shining sun took turns with down pouring rain and strong wind.
The first race took place under severe wet conditions, however that didn’t prevent the crew pilot not only to drive Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport and score the necessary points but also set the best lap time.
The second race took place at a dry track and resulted in serious competition between the leaders in GT4 class. Their ranks in the tournament table constantly changed, which made both the audience on the tribunes and the crew members in box nervous. Nevertheless, at the final round Ivan Sherbakov and his Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport managed to outdo his main rival.
По As a result of two races, the pilots of Sportcar Racing Team took the first places in GT3 class and the second place in GT4.
“That`s the third race that we held together with Rublyovskiy Porsche Center. As a leader of the crew representing Moscow Polytech I can see how much our students improved their skills. They are constantly supervised by the leading racing engineers in the country. This is the experience the guys will keep forever and that will have its role in their further career”, shared Alexandra Korzun, the head of sport projects carried out by AES for electric transport under Moscow Polytech.
