DPR take first point of season

DPR take first point of season

24 May 2008

David Price Racing scored a point in today's Sprint race at the Monaco round of the 2008 GP2 Series, with stand-in driver, Andy Soucek taking sixth place, putting the team on the Championship points leaderboard for the first time this season. Regular driver, Diego Nunes, backed up Soucek's achievement with a solid ninth place.

David Price, Team Principal, was happy to break the team's duck, saying, "It's a relief to have finally scored a point this season; Andy did a great job at the start to keep out of the first lap dramas and make up positions, then he was able to capitalise on another drivers' misfortune. Diego also had a strong run today; he didn't succumb to the pressure that was on him from Grosjean behind and is continuing to improve as he gains experience with this car. It's not an easy track to drive, but I think we've proved we have the car to match any other. We've had our first race this season with both cars finishing in the top ten, so we're pleased with that."
