GRRL! SUMMARY:
- PATRICIJA STALIDZANE overcame brake issues and back-of-grid qualifying to gain nine positions in Race 1 at Mugello, matching co-driver Leonardo Pulcini’s pace within a tenth while demonstrating mature tire management aboard the Oregon Team Lamborghini.
- The Latvian racer’s Italian GT Sprint debut showcased her rapid adaptation from Nürburgring endurance specialist to competitive GT3 sprint driver, consistently running 1:54s-1:55s during demanding stints against a 30-car field.
