The Jamaica Millennium Motoring Club (JMMC) has saluted the efforts of Jamaican racers Chris Issa and Senna Summerbell, after the pair clinched a podium finish at Round 3 of the 2025 TCR European Endurance Series in Vallelunga, Italy.

Flying the flag on the European circuit


The JMMC praised the pair for their determination and professionalism, noting that their achievement strengthens Jamaica’s reputation in endurance touring car competition. Against seasoned European teams, Issa and Summerbell once again proved themselves capable of contending for honors at the highest level.

Season finale looms large in Misano


Attention now shifts to the series finale at Misano, Italy, from November 14–16, where the championship stakes will be at their highest. The closing round carries extra weight, with 50 percent more points on offer and each team’s poorest result excluded from the final standings. That combination ensures that every lap in Misano could be decisive in shaping the championship outcome.

The JMMC, in its congratulatory message, reaffirmed its confidence in the Jamaican drivers as they prepare for the final challenge of the season:

“We applaud Chris Issa and Senna Summerbell for their success at Vallelunga and wish them every success as they gear up for the all-important finale in Misano.”

Building momentum for the future


For Issa and Summerbell, the Vallelunga podium adds to a growing list of international results that highlight both their potential and their commitment to elevating Jamaica’s profile in world motorsport. With one round remaining, they remain poised to close out the season in style.
