OFFICIAL TEST DAYS IN VALENCIA: LORANDI FASTEST IN THE END

GP3-Series

The GP3 Series teams met up on 25th and 26th April 2017 for the last official pre-season test days at the Circuito Ricardo Tormo near Valencia (E). Alessio Lorandi (I) and Arjun Maini (IND) drove for Jenzer Motorsport.

The weather was warm and agreeable and our drivers ran a test program in which different set ups were tried, mostly in regard to the new DRS system, along with some race distance simulations.

On the morning of the first day Alessio finished up 7th and Arjun was 8th. In the afternoon Alessio was a spectacular 2nd, a mere 2 thousandths of a second off the fastest time while Arjun was in 10th place.

The second day showed just how comfortable Alessio felt on the Valencia track. He managed an superb 4th place in the morning and in the afternoon shone with the fastest time of all! Arjun reached 13th position in the morning and was in an excellent 5th in the afternoon.
As we have seen at all the pre-season test days, the competition is very strong and the whole field is always extremely close together.
