Michael Broadhurst to compete in the FIA GT4 European Cup at Silverstone

On the eve of the opening round to the FIA GT Championship 2009, Michael has secured a late deal to run with PMB Motorsport in the GT4 European Cup aboard their newly acquired Ginetta G50. The Belgian squad will reunite Michael with his former British GT Championship race winning team mate Joe Osborne, who had previously signed for the team earlier this year.

“I am absolutely thrilled to be racing again; I couldn’t stop smiling when I knew the deal had been done! To be driving alongside Joe this weekend is a fantastic feeling. We made a great pairing last year in the British series and we will be looking to repeat our success on home soil at Silverstone, a circuit that I love”.

Practice will commence on Friday (1st May), followed by two short qualifying sessions. Two 40 minute races to include driver changes will then be held on Saturday (2nd May) afternoon and Sunday (3rd May) morning.

“It’s going to tough, the grid should be pretty competitive and there’s a lot of quick machinery entered. I felt confident in the car last year and I know this circuit really well so we should definitely have a strong weekend”.
