Indian driver Arjun Maini and his team Haunt Racing secured their first podium in the Bronze category of the GT World Challenge Europe at Monza.
In the Bronze category, a driver is required in the Bronze, Silver and Gold categories. Arjun was a gold rate driver for Mercedes AMG.
The team made a promising start with Hubert Haupt (the team is named after him) despite several yellow flags and safety cars.
Sébastien Baud then took over and kept the pace going until the end of his stint just before the 2 hour mark of the 3 hour endurance race.
Arjun got into the car in the final hour and came out of the pits in P3 in the Bronze class.
“It was great to stand on the podium with my teammates at Monza so early in the championship. It’s also the first race of the championship and getting a podium means a lot to me,” said Maini.
