NASCAR Pinty's Series: Eleventh race - Oval track
Autodrome St-Eustache - September 8th, 2018

The #04 Spectra Premium | Bernier Crépeau Chrysler Fiat | Groupe Bellemare | MIA team will be back racing on the Autodrome St-Eustache (St-Eustache, Québec) oval track on Saturday September 8th, where the team finished in sixth position at the last NASCAR Pinty's Series visit at the half-mile unbanked oval. Jean-François Dumoulin will enjoy performing in front of his Quebec fans, and especially over 80 guests employees of Spectra Premium who will certainly enjoy watching "their car" during the Lucas Oil 250 event.

"The bumpy track makes it difficult to drive quickly as you must stick to the smooth portions, a very technical exercise when in the middle of a tight pack of racers all bent on passing you. We all look forward to this race and are ready to enjoy the very competitive give and take that always happens at St-Eustache. Our team tested at the track last week and came up with excellent set-ups for the race. It gets even better than that, as experienced crew chief Éric Laperle will join us for the event. Things are looking great, as we all work very well together, and he knows the track intimately. With three races left in the season, we are sparing no effort to get the #04 Spectra Premium | Bernier Crépeau Chrysler Fiat | Groupe Bellemare | MIA car to the front of the lead pack", explained Jean-François Dumoulin.
