Team Owner/Driver - Ricardo Gonzalez
"Spa has always been one of my favorite tracks so to go there with our own team is going to be great. We're coming in off a win and as the championship leaders so it's important to carry the momentum forward. The team has done a lot of work back at the shop to give us an even better car for Spa, so there's no reason why we can't go out and fight for another win."
Driver - Bruno Senna
"After great success during the team’s first race at the 6 Hours of Silverstone, I’m looking even more forward to racing with Ricardo and Filipe and the RGR Sport by Morand team. Nothing has changed in terms of our approach for this weekend in Spa, but efforts have not been spared since Silverstone and lots of analysis and developments are ongoing to make sure we keep improving and get more competitive as the championship progresses. Spa is one of my favorite tracks and I’ve qualified on pole and front-row there many times, but I’m still yet to win it. Will push very hard for it!"
Driver - Filipe Albuquerque
"I can’t wait to go to Spa. It's one of my favourite tracks and to go there in a quick and competitive car like the ligier JS P2 of RGR Sport by Morand is great. We have a lot of team spirit and we come from a victory at our first race so I couldnt be more motivated to do my best."
Technical Director – Gautier Boutellier
“RGR Sport by Morand will be arriving in Spa leading the championship after a faultless race in Silverstone. We know that we have a strong package with the car, team, and drivers, but once again, the competition is very high and we’ll have to keep working and pushing hard all together to keep the momentum. Every single person on the team is extremely motivated. We are ready for it.”
