A New Attempt

A New Attempt

16. August 2007In Most, Markus Altenstrasser and Ross Garrett now want to accomplish what they were denied at the Truck Grand Prix because of the inexperience of the people responsible for calculating the points – to stand on the podium. As we know, the two Renault pilots clearly won the team ranking on Sunday, but at the time of the victory ceremony the Frankie Team was only assigned fourth position. Meanwhile the points were credited to the Czech team belatedly, but, of course, that’s no compensation for a place on the podium; at the Ring this would even have meant the trophy for 1st on the podium. Chief pilot Frankie Vojtisek is on the road to recovery after his recent illness. He is already plying his trade and doing the daily paperwork, but is not yet fit enough to drive his race truck. So at Most the Austrian and the Brit will once more speed along the track in the red racers of the Frankie Team. In the case of Simeon Martin, that’s a closed chapter for the Czechs. He will most probably not anymore drive a Frankie truck. Frankie, however, will soon return to the cockpit of his race truck, that’s the conviction of all the people in his team.
