Flemming Jørgensen finaly mad it to vitory at the CHGP 2015, and setting fastes lap for the race.
Throughout the weekend we had massive brake problems. We changed disc and pads for every race.
But after 6-7 laps they fadded, they even caught fire at one point.
The diff ratio was a bit too high

Not much room for error on that track!
By the way, the car sounds just as amazing on the inside as it did on the outside.

We used 2 sets off Brembo disc and 2 sets off Ferodo DS3000 and carbon metallic pads for the final.
The Mini did 15 minutes time session, and 3 x 15 minutes off racing.

The Mini was not the only car to have brake problems at CHGP.
