Second in NCATS points
Trois-Rivières, Québec – Strongly positioned in second place in the general rankings and having secured a podium in 2013, Louis-Philippe Dumoulin is intent on repeating his successful experience this year behind the wheel of the #47 Dodge WeatherTech Canada / Bellemare Group on the ICAR circuit of Mirabel this upcoming July 6 for the “Jiffy Lube 100” event, presented by La Petite Bretonne. In synergy with the Quebecer, crew chief Mario Gosselin and the King Autosport team members only have one objective in mind: accumulating points in light of the championship.
Louis-Philippe Dumoulin has proven his tenacity and expertise time and time again on road circuit, this weekend will not be the exception and the driver of the #47 Dodge WeatherTech Canada / Bellemare Group convincingly claims that the primary goal to reach the championship is consistency in performance throughout the season.
“Excitement is there, we are here to win in every race. We are in a good spot in the championship, and this weekend, more than ever, we’ll have to be smart with the challenges ahead. There are still many races to go and the competition will be increasingly tough. The team is ready to face the challenge.”
Series after series, at the wheel of exceedingly powerful vehicles since the beginning of their career, the Dumoulin brothers have performed relentlessly. It is always with pleasure and passion that Jean-François and Louis-Philippe Dumoulin find themselves together on the track. “It’s always an honor to race in front of partners, families, friends, and fans that have been supporting us forever,” concludes the driver of the #47 Dodge WeatherTech Canada / Bellemare Group.
