The Porsche GT3 Cup Mexico got on its way for 2010 with a full grid and a complete calendar. The second race of the year was in Puebla at the magnificent Autodromo Miguel E. Abed.
The intricate FIA approved track proved ideal for the Porsche GT3 Cup, tight double apex corners and off camber long turns proved to be the ideal playground for the Cup cars as they have already tried during the end of 2009.
For 2010 a full grid of 20 Porsche Cup cars and a complete calendar ensures plenty of fun... but don't take it from me and...
...let's check out the action!!!
Once again it was a delight watching the Porsche Cup cars in action. The second race of the year in Puebla brought lots of race action in a tremendous circuit. The organization was impeccable and to the highest level.
Congratulations to all participants for a magnificent race...
...until the next race...
¡¡¡ VIVE TU PORSCHE AL MAXIMO !!!
