Home podium for Mees Houben at Zandvoort

Mees Houben took his third GT4 podium of the season at Circuit Zandvoort. Together with Lachlan Evennett, he finished second in Saturday's race, both overall and in the Silver category. Mees laid the foundation in qualifying, where he set the fifth-fastest time. In his opening stint he first passed Benjamin Lariche (Speedcar Audi) and then pole-sitter Grégory Guilvert. That put the Toyota in third place when the pit stops began. Evennett took over and kept the car on course for the podium. The fight for the win was decided by a penalty. Henry Joslyn and Yani Stevenheydens took the chequered flag first in their Elite Motorsport McLaren, but received ten seconds for speeding in the pit lane. As a result, Charlie Hart and McKenzy Cresswell (Elite Motorsport McLaren) took the victory. Houben and Evennett moved up to second, 5.1 seconds behind the winners. In Sunday's race the pair finished fifth, again also fifth in the Silver category. With that, Mees completed a strong home weekend. The season finale follows in October at Portimão.
