GRRL! SUMMARY:
- CARRIE SCHREINER and teammate Alain Valente proved they belong in the ADAC GT Masters top ten fight at Salzburgring, consistently running competitive times in their Land-Motorsport Audi R8 LMS Evo2 before technical gremlins and race circumstances conspired against them. After qualifying 12th for Race 1, Schreiner navigated early traffic well until suspension damage from contact forced retirement while running competitively.
- Race 2 showcased the duo’s resilience as they fought back from dead last after an aggressive move by a BMW driver forced Valente onto the grass at the restart. SCHREINER methodically climbed from 13th to 10th place, capitalizing on midfield incidents and showing exactly the kind of racecraft that’s earned this pairing respect in the series – until cold tires after a red flag restart sent her spinning back through the field.
- The weekend perfectly encapsulates SCHREINER’s season story: speed and skill that consistently puts her in position for strong results, only to have circumstances beyond her control snatch away the rewards. With a solid seventh at Lausitzring already under her belt this year, she’s proven the pace is there – now it’s about getting the luck to match the talent as the Red Bull Ring round approaches on her birthday weekend.
