The #04 Dodge Bernier Crépeau / Bellemare / MIA / Spectra Premium had crossed the finish line in third place, highlighting the first podium in the NASCAR Canadian Tire series for Jean-François Dumoulin. The challenge remains the same for the #04 Bernier Crépeau / Bellemare / MIA / Spectra Premium team : have a strong performance to secure their presence in the final race on September 19, and prepare for the 2016 season.

The road circuit of the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park is a track that Jean-François Dumoulin can master, and he’s confident that he will be able to offer a good show to racing fans who will be present this weekend. “During the first race, we’ve been able to take advantage of an opportunity in the final laps, and we ended up on the podium. Third place is our best performance of the season so far. We’re hoping to be even faster this weekend and finish strong, once again, so we can rank higher,” shares the driver of the #04 Dodge Bernier Crépeau / Bellemare / MIA / Spectra Premium.
