"New Zealand has proud history at I-1GP event, consistently placing in the top five, so to claim another medal result speaks volumes about the skill, speed, and expertise of our team as well as coaching provided by Isuzu Service support manager, Dmitriy Velikanov," Colin Muir, general manager Isuzu Trucks New Zealand, says "The achievements of our technicians should provide our customers here in New Zealand with peace of mind knowing that some of the very best mechanics in the world are working on their Isuzu Trucks."

The New Zealand team was represented by Aaron Toumoua and James Hotton, both from Isuzu Master Truck Dealer Cable Price Wellington.
