Funnily enough, that test in 2008 with Motopark Academy was also in Estoril.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In Portugal, Zele Racing will return to the grid after sitting out the Germany event on the N\u00fcrburgring last month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing back on the track, we certainly want to do well and attack the podium. Luis is a very talented driver and it\u2019s good having him on board for this event.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Both races will be held on Sunday \u2013 starting 11:50 am and 6:30 pm local time \u2013 and broadcast live on Eurosport.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Luis Sa Silva will drive for the Austrian outfit at the final race of the season in Estoril<\/p><p><a class=\"more-link btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/?p=1263\">Weiterlesen<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1193,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,4],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1263"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1263"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1263\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1265,"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1263\/revisions\/1265"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1193"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1263"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1263"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.zele-racing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1263"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
