This means that Jacques gained no less than 13 positions by the final lap on lap 15, under drizzling weather conditions and a damp track.

This was the best result for Jacques in 14 championship races this season, which shows that he has learnt a lot during this very competitive category of racing among several talented and experienced racing drivers.

Today, Jacques was the 3rd fastest in Sector 2 with a speed of 89.2 mph, and he was the 5th fastest at the finish line with a speed of 95.4 mph.

Yesterday, in Round 13, Jacques registered the second fastest speed in Sector 2 of the track with a speed of 88.5 mph. In yesterday's race Jacques finished in 19th position after starting from the last place on the grid in the 25th position.

Jacques' fastest lap today was 1 minute 33.346 seconds, a little slower than yesterday's fastest lap of 1 minute 32.996 seconds given the marginally different weather conditions.
