Montréal, Québec (May 19th, 2008) - Sportimage.net- Karting Driver Jesse Lazare has taken an important championship lead in the 4 stroke junior category by clinching two back to back wins in the Montreal championship held this past Saturday at the SH Karting track.
Jesse Lazare has experienced an incredible start to the season so far. “I have five more races to win in order to clinch the championship,” explains Jesse with a big smile. "The final was very tense because Isabelle [Manny] and Maxime [Plante] were very close behind me,” he explains.
Jesse qualified in third position with only 0,048 seconds shy of first place. He took first place and kept it during the pre-final until he crossed the finish line. The final was not an easy one to win since Manny and Plante stuck close behind him.
“In his first year, Jesse learnt how to handle pressure. We worked very hard with him on this aspect because it was something he lacked,” explains his mechanic Hugo. He controlled the pressure very well in the final. At the start, he was able to manage Manny and Plante who did not give up. Without counting the back markers at the end of the race! It was an incredible 15 lap final where the top position was changed two times, but it was Jesse who held on until the finish line with only 0,074 seconds separating him from Isabelle Manny.
Jesse will be on the Château-Richer track, near Quebec next Sunday where he will participate in the Vega Championship in the Mini-Max Category.
For the second consecutive year, Lazare is sponsored by garage doors Garaga, SH Karting team, Kart-o-mania and the family business, Dor Doctor.
Results (Final):
1- Jesse Lazare
2- Isabelle Manny + 0,074 second
3- Maxime Plante + 0,331 second
