Gearbox problem for Jos
Published on 03 April 2006 by Thorsten Hendriks
Just before the feature race we managed to speak with Jos about the retirement in the Sprint race.
"It was the fifth gear that went. It started a few laps before, but I couldn't continue with it. I thought it would be better to drive back to the pit and have the mechanics have a go at repairing it. The car felt well but with a gearbox problem there was not a chance for a good position. We had a slight problem with that part on Friday. The manufacturer of the gearbox checked it but they could not find a problem. The mechanics did a good job to have it all ready for the second race.
