Unfortunately in qualifying on Saturday with a wet track played a few problems with the set-up and the rain tires have relegated the Ferrari No. 3 in the fourth row, the same performance obtained by his team-mate Ramos.

Race 1 saw Ramos made a great start, but unfortunately at the first corner contact between the pilots who were in second and third place has put an end to the race car's Racing Team Edil-Cris after just 2 laps.

In Race 2 the crew Giammaria-Ramos was again close to victory, as in Imola, winning the second step of the podium. A second place that knows how to win as obtained after a spirited comeback from the last position where Raphael was slipped into the first corner because of a "blow" received at the start of a Ferrari that was leaving behind.

Raffaele Giammaria: "I'm sorry for Race 1 in which we both retired, but Miguel is not to blame and could not do anything to avoid the accident at the first corner. For Race 2 are met in the middle, because we are more Ferrari competitive, but we already have won two races. However, we are fourth in the overall standings and very attached to the first three. Now we have about 40 days before the next race at Spa, we will devote time to the development of the new Ferrari F458 GT2. "
