Ben Keating of the #33 TF Sport Corvette Z06 LMGT3.R described their ‘Easter miracle’ after turning a points finish at the 6 Hours of Imola.

“I said that I felt like it would be an Easter miracle if we got in the points,” said the Texan after starting 15th and finishing seventh.

“And we got in the points! So an Easter miracle.

“It was another perfect execution by everyone on the team. That was the difference.

“We did not have a fast car. By the end of it, I think all three drivers in our car had four track-limit warnings, and on the fifth you get a penalty.

“So well done to everyone on the team.

“Unfortunately I got spun around by another car during my stint. But in a way I was very happy with the way it went down.

“I was able to keep the car running, didn’t brake and rolled right back into the track and headed into the right direction.

“We only lost three spots so it didn’t cost us much.

“A great weekend from everyone here at TF Sport.

“I’m happy to still be in the [championship] points lead.

“The cars that finished second, third, fifth and sixth weren’t in the points at Qatar.

“The Lexus that finished fourth in Qatar was in the points here and ahead of us.

“So they will be pretty close in the championship, but we are still in the lead and I like our chances for the rest of the season.”

Keating and his co-drivers Daniel Juncadella and Jonny Edgar climbed eight places during the race.

Crucially, they retained a championship lead 10 points more on the #78 Akkodis ASP Lexus RC F LMGT3 team (finished P3).
