Depois de vencer a prova de encerramento da rodada dupla da GP2 na Inglaterra, neste domingo, o piloto Bruno Senna disse que a briga pela liderança da categoria está mais viva do que nunca.
Com a vitória em Silverstone, o brasileiro pulou para o segundo lugar na tabela com 39 pontos, logo atrás do veterano Giorgio Pantano, que tem 50.
- O campeonato ainda está muito vivo e estou a apenas 11 pontos dele (Pantano). Por isso, se ele não terminar uma corrida e eu ganhar, entro na briga novamente - diz Senna ao site do jornal inglês "The Guardian".

Racing's most famous nephew is unconcerned by 11-point gap to Giorgio Pantano

Bruno Senna says the GP2 championship battle is 'very much alive' following his win at Silverstone at the weekend.
The iSport driver took a strong wet-weather win in Sunday's sprint race in front of the British grand prix crowd, having only finished sixth in the feature race the day before, despite starting from pole position. He is now 11 points behind championship leader Giorgio Pantano of Racing Engineering, who won the feature race and took third in the sprint event.
Senna said he was thinking of the title as the series prepares for its next race, at Hockenheim, in a fortnight. "We have had more bad races than he [Pantano] has had, so that's how hard it is," said Senna. "Sometimes we have problems and that unfortunately hinders us, but they're going to have their problems too and we're going to score, so the championship is still very, very much alive. We are only halfway and it's only 11 points, so if he doesn't finish a race and I win then it's tied again, so that's pretty good."
