Maaco Sponsored Formula Mazda Crashes

WCFE Round 4 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca from Lloyd Read on Vimeo.

The Maaco sponsored Lloyd Read Formula Mazda is still in the hunt for the FE Championship but as this video shows, it was forced to retire during Round 4 of the series. Read spins early in the race then, amazingly, retakes most of the cars in the field. Sadly, as Read attempts a pass in Turn 2, he is forced off the track, spins and is hit by another car. Suspension damage puts the car out of the race.

See Read in his faster Pro Formula Mazda this weekend at Infineon Raceway, Sears Point for the Formula Car Challenge by Goodyear:

Join Maaco at Infineon Raceway June 11-12, 2011

Friends,

Lloyd Read is racing one of the formula cars that Maaco sponsors at Infineon Raceway, Sears Point next weekend. Expect to see Lloyd at Indy or Formula 1 in the next couple of years. He finished 3rd in the Formula E Championship last year (his rookie season). Last week at Laguna Seca he set a new course record during qualifying then won his race!

The next race is the Formula Car Challenge presented by Goodyear. This will be in the more powerful Pro Formula Mazda. Read is 2nd in the standings so far.

We hope to see you there!
