Adrian Quaife-Hobbs added to his points total for the season when he scored more points at the Monaco Grand Prix.

The iconic circuit played host to the third round of the GP2 season last weekend and it was another good race for the Kent based driver.

It was a tough qualifying performance for Adrian who suffered with mechanical problems from the off and the main issue was brake bias. This meant that unfortunately Quaife-Hobbs could only qualify in 17^th place.

His Rapax team decided to alter their tactics for the races and it paid off as Adrian came home with a ninth place finish, just missing out on eighth and pole position for race two. The feature race was certainly action packed with two safety cars and a red flag incident.

Speaking after race one, Quaife-Hobbs said: “Today’s race has been a confusing one. Right after the start, the safety-car came in, then the race was interrupted with a red flag and then we got another safety-car.

“The last one damaged me quite a lot because when it came on-track, we arrived at the Port Chicane at slow speed, as prescribed by the rules. Unfortunately, many drivers that were in front accelerated hard, and gained enough ground to stop for their tyre change and come back out in front of me.

“If we go beyond this episode, we have confirmed that here at Monte Carlo we have a good race pace. I’m confident because we can be competitive on all types of tracks”

In race two of the weekend Adrian began the race from ninth on the grid and managed to make up a further place during the action on track. It means that he finished in the points for the second race in a row and for the fourth time in five races.

Giving his thoughts after the sprint race, he added: “At the start I fought with Evans and Palmer. I made it in 8th and I managed the car for the sole race without taking full advantage of its potential. I had a very quick pace but the race, especially after the Safety-Car came in, turned out to be a procession and passing was almost impossible.

“The final laps have been tough due to the tyre wear but it was a common issue on most of the cars. I’m happy to have ended up in the point’s zone once again, but now my goal will be to score some “heavy” results!”

The season now moves on and will be on track in Austria for the first time for GP2 over the weekend of the 21^st and 22^nd June.
