Intercontinental GT Challenge – 12H Bathurst 2019: Race Report
Maximum attack was the mission of Team BLACK FALCON in the 2019 Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hours, as they returned to Mount Panorama, Australia’s legendary racing circuit. With their elite drivers setting a qualifying time that put them on the front row of a 38-strong field, the team put everything into the race, and a strong opening phase saw them lead overall. However, the team were one of many to fall victim to the tight confines of the circuit: during the eighth hour their Mercedes-AMG GT3 was pushed off track and blocked radiators caused engine overheating. This hobbled the AMG, and soon after the team were forced to retire.
24H Series – 24H Dubai 2019: Race Report
Team BLACK FALCON has completed the opening event of 2019, the Hankook 24H Dubai, with one of their pair of Mercedes-AMG GT3 entries coming home 15th after a challenging but exciting race. The team were unlucky with some Code 60 safety periods early in the race, with both BLACK FALCON AMG entries losing out at times, but the drivers fought back and both AMG would take turns leading the race overall during the depth of the night. Unfortunately, subsequent unconnected technical issues hit both cars and caused long visits to the pit garage; one AMG was forced to retire, but the second car returned to the fray and battled right to the end, eventually completing 579 laps after a tough 24 hours.
