  • Team WRT #31 gagal mewujudkan target meraih podium dalam 1000 Miles of Sebring.
  • Dalam putaran pembuka FIA WEC 2023 itu, tim yang diperkuat Sean Gelael tersebut finis ketujuh kelas LMP2. 
  • Sean Gelael dan Team WRT #31 berambisi bangkit pada race kedua, 6 Hours of Portimao, April mendatang.

SKOR.id – Target meraih podium di 1000 Miles of Sebring gagal diwujudkan Team WRT #31 yang diperkuat pembalap Indonesia Sean Gelael dan dua rekannya, Ferdinand Habsburg dan Robin Frijns.

Pada balapan pembuka FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) 2023 itu, Sean dan kawan-kawan finis ketujuh dalam kelas LMP2 di Sebring International Raceway, Jumat hingga Sabtu pagi WIB (17-18/3/2023).

Walaupun target podium gagal diraih, Team WRT #31 tidak terlalu kecewa karena Sean Gelael, Ferdinand Habsburg dan Robin Frijns telah berjuang maksimal sepanjang race.  

Baapan 1000 Miles of Sebring awalnya berjalan mulus. Namun, tak lama kemudian mobil GTE Am #83 yang dikendarai Luis Perez Companc tergelincir di Tikungan 1 dan menabrak pembatas ban. 

Akibatnya, Safety Car (SC) pun masuk ke trek untuk menetralkan lomba. Beberapa mobil lantas masuk pit untuk menjalankan taktik alternatif, memanfaatkan keberadaan SC. Team WRT #31 memilih tidak pit stop.

Sean Gelael yang menjadi pembalap pertama Team WRT #31 tampil mengesankan. Start dari posisi ketiga (P3) kelas LMP2, ia mampu mempertahankan tempat di baris depan.

Pembalap Jagonya Ayam Motorsport itu sekali lagi memperlihatkan aksi bertahan dengan sangat solid. Beberapa rival mencoba untuk menyalipnya, namun selalu mampu dimentahkan oleh Sean.

Modal baik tersebut sangat berguna saat kendali mobil Team WERT #31 diambil alih Ferdinand Habsburg. Pembalap Austria ini bisa menjaga posisi tim tetap pada zona podium.  

Ketika tim United Autosports USA #23 yang tampil dominan, terutama karena efek dari memanfaatkan intervensi SC, tiba-tiba harus retire akibat mobilnya kehilangan power, persaingan memburu kemenangan di LMP2 jadi makin terbuka.

Itu juga berlaku bagi Team WRT #31, walau peluangnya tidak besar. Hanya, sayangnya, beberapa eksekusi lomba tidak berjalan seperti biasanya sehingga kans memburu kemenangan perlahan pudar.

Bahkan, Sean Gelael dan kolega terlempar dari posisi lima besar. Pada akhirnya Team WRT #31 harus puas menyelesaikan race delapan jam 1000 Miles of Sebring di urutan ketujuh. 

Sementara kemenangan diklaim Hertz Jota #48. Posisi runner-up menjadi milik United Autosports #22 dan melengkapi tiga besar ada Prema Racing #63. Meski finis terdepan, Jota #48 tak dapat poin sebab bukan peserta tetap FIA WEC 2023. 

Gagal mencapai target di Sebring, Team WRT #31 bertekad bangkit pada putaran kedua musim ini, 6 Hours of Portimao, yang akan berlangsung di Sirkuit Internasional Algarve, Portugal, 16 April mendatang.

“Balapan yang berat. Kami sempat di posisi depan, tapi akhirnya finis P7. Kami akan segera bangkit,” ujar Sean Gelael dalam rilis timnya.

Hasil Race 1000 Miles of Sebring kelas LMP2 (Top 10):

1) Hertz Team Jota #48 (Ye Yifei, Will Stevens, David Beckmann)

2) United Autosports #22 (Filipe Albuquerque, Philip Hanson, Frederick Lubin)

3) Prema Racing #63 (Mirko Bortolotti, Daniil Kvyat, Doriane Pin)

4) Inter Europol Competition #34 (Albert Costa, Fabio Scherer, Jakub Smiechowski)

5) Team WRT #41 (Rui Andrade, Louis Deletraz, Robert Kubica)

6) Jota #28 (Pietro Fittipaldi, David Hansson, Oliver Rasmussen)

7) Team WRT #31 (Sean Gelael, Ferdinand Habsburg, Robin Frijns)

8) Prema Racing #9 (Andrea Caldarelli, Filip Ugran, Bent Viscaal)

9) Alpine Elf Team #36 (Julien Canal, Charles Milesi, Matthieu Vaxiviere)

10) Vector Sport #10 (Gabriel Aubry, Ryan Cullen, Matthias Kaiser)
