Alex Job cars 1-2 in GT class

By
BRASELTON - Alex Job Racing's two Porsche entries battled to the end, with Timo<br> Bernhard, Jorg Bergmeister and Sascha Maassen scoring a narrow .367-second win over Romain Dumas, Marc Lieb and Wolf Henzler.<br> <br> The win was Bernhard's fifth of the season in the ALMS, and Maassen's 22nd career ALMS victory.<br> <br> "That was not a photo finish opportunity," said Bernhard. "We were racing hard to the end. A car spun in front of me near the end and that allowed Romain to catch up. It was a hard finish."<br> <br> "I had two times a situation to overtake (the other Job car)," said Maassen, who scored his first ALMS win in the 1999 Petit Le Mans as an<br> added third driver with the Job team. "In traffic I had the experience so I could pull away. I had to put pressure on Henzler, I made the pass in the chicane and had to make a big gap. Thanks to Timo, Jorg, and Alex Job for preparing both cars so well.<br> <br> "You have to drive with the right team," Maassen said of his fourth win in the Petit Le Mans. "The first year I was an unknown driver and didn't make mistakes so I was invited back. I had to be quick, I didn't think<br> I'd have to push it this weekend, but I was wrong."<br> <br> Finishing third in the GT class was the Petersen Motorsports/White Lightning Porsche of Craig Stanton and David Murry.
