With discomfort in the neck and left arm, the Chilean was left Benjamin Hites (Fiat-Akka ASP) during the second date of the GT World Challenge Europe Powered by AWS, in Misano (Italy).

When the 21-year-old was defending the first position in the Silver category, and the sixth overall, Luca Drudi’s Audi touched him from behind, destabilizing him to be crossed on the track and then the car being hit from the right side.

So far came the illusion of getting on the podium of the duo made up of the French Jim Pla and the national representative on the rookie series. The start of the test had been auspicious. Pla started from third place, handing the machine in fifth place to the national after half an hour of racing.

Hites came out to defend the position and when he was rolling over 11 minutes on the track, he took a left turn on the rope (inside), being hit by the Italian’s Audi.

Machine # 89 entered a spin, stopped in the middle of the track to resume the race, but he was hit by another car that hit him in the middle of the body, leaving you with a broken rear suspension

“Unfortunately what happened. It was going very well after the first half hour that my partner Jim Pla did. He gave me first place in the category and I went out to defend him. That’s where I was when they touched me from behind and I lost control of the car. We hope to reverse the situation tomorrow, ”said Hites somewhat pained.

This Sunday he will have to face two races (2 and 3) with the hope that the AMG Mercedes machine will be in good condition.
