🏁 Estoril Classics – A Weekend to Remember!
What an incredible way to wrap up the 2025 Historic Racing by Peter Auto season! Over two unforgettable days at the Estoril Classics, our drivers delivered passion, performance, and pure racing excellence.
🔥 Saturday Highlights:
The weekend kicked off in style with strong qualifying sessions across all categories. In Classic Endurance Racing 2, Dominique and Maxime were right in the mix, securing second and third on the grid among a massive 39-car field. Armand also impressed in CER1 qualifying, taking second with his stunning Lola T70.
In the Gentlemen Challenge, Volker put on a great show, finishing fourth overall and taking a class win with his Bizzarrini, while Luc Pierre fought brilliantly before an unfortunate incident ended his race early.
Later in the day, Maxime set the tone in the Heritage Touring Cup by grabbing pole position with his Ford Capri, followed closely by Armand in third and Dominique in fourth — a sign of the battles to come.
The highlight of the day was the two-hour Sixties’ Endurance race, where Maxime, starting from the front row in his Shelby Cobra Daytona, drove a masterful race to claim victory — and the 2025 championship title! Armand joined him on the podium after an equally impressive performance. A huge achievement that reflects both Maxime’s outstanding season and the tireless work of our dedicated mechanics.
🏆 Sunday Triumphs:
Sunday began with the Classic Endurance Racing 2 race, and it couldn’t have gone better — Maxime quickly took the lead with his Lola, followed closely by his father Dominique in the TOJ. The result? A fantastic one-two finish to start the day!
In the Gentlemen Challenge, Luc Pierre charged from the back of the grid up to second place before being forced to retire, while Volker once again delivered a strong drive, finishing fifth overall and second in class.
The afternoon saw Armand at full throttle, first dominating CER1 with his Lola T70 to take victory and secure the championship title, then immediately jumping into his Capri for the Heritage Touring Cup. There, Maxime led a thrilling battle at the front, overtaking his championship rival and going on to win — with Armand in second and Yvan in third, giving the team a spectacular 1-2-3 finish! Hervé completed the success with a class podium in his Ford Es**rt.
💪 A Perfect Ending to an Extraordinary Season:
Three championship titles for Maxime, one for Armand, countless podiums, and a weekend full of teamwork and emotion. None of this would have been possible without our incredible mechanics, whose dedication and passion have been the backbone of our success all year long.
A heartfelt thank you to all our drivers, team members, and supporters — you made this 2025 season truly unforgettable.
