Huge success for the women's X-BOW team in the USA!
ANSA Motorsports’ thrilling overall victory in the GTS class of the Pirelli World Challenge has now been followed by yet another highlight for the team from Miami at the end of the racing season. The team picked up another win in the MP-2a category at the “FARA Miami 500”, a long-distance event on the circuit of the Homestead-Miami Speedway, while competing against a very strong lineup. This time it was not Brett Sandberg who was responsible for the success, but instead, two young women who were at the wheel of the KTM X-BOW GT4: Austrian Laura Kraihamer and French driver Ines Taittinger. Driving the car with the start number 113, they took second place in their class in both of the qualification races and then won the endurance race on Sunday. It was the first-ever win by a women's team, so the victory was very noteworthy. Both Kraihamer and Taittinger have been racing in the USA for the first time and had never before started at Homestead.
