By

Proteam Motorsport announced yesterday that Davide Roda will replace Sergio Hernández at the wheel of one of the team’s BMW 320si cars in Brno and for the rest of the season.No details were unveiled about the reasons why the deal between the Italian independent team and the young Spanish driver has come to an end.

Roda, a 35-year old from Como, had already joined Proteam – alongside his new team-mate Luca Rangoni – for the 2005 FIA European Touring car Cup at Vallelunga.

Last year Roda teamed with Roberto Colciago at SEAT Sport Italia, taking part in the Italian Superturismo Championship at the wheel of a SEAT León.

He was classified eighth in the championship and took also part in the two FIA WTCC events at Monza and Magny-Cours.
