Press Release 12 / 2016

9^th June 2016

Promising top ten positions

The seven GP3 Series teams met up on 7^th and 8^th June 2016 for the official test days at the Red Bull Ring near Spielberg (A). 23 drivers were in attendance. Akash Nandy (MAS), Oscar Tunjo (COL) and Richard Gonda (SVK) all drove for Jenzer.

Agreeable temperatures and dry weather accompanied the test days and we were able to use the time to prepare for the race which will take place at the end of June on the same circuit. We focussed on testing different set ups and running a number of race simulations.

Our boys all put in very promising performances and were classified as follows:
Oscar achieved an excellent result of 4^th on the first morning, and was 14^th in the afternoon.
Richard was 20^th in the morning and in the afternoon reached a splendid 8^th place.
Akash was a respectable 18^th in the morning and classified 22^nd in the afternoon.
On day two Oscar managed to reach a very promising 7^th place both in the morning and in the afternoon.
Richard was 16^th in the morning, and in the afternoon again netted a beautiful top ten position with 9^th place.
Akash was 21^st in the morning but was hit by technical gremlins in the afternoon, just when he was on his fastest lap. That meant he was again classified 21^st.

We are now looking forward to the second race of the new season, which will be part of the Formula 1 Grand Prix programme on 2^nd/3^rd July 2016, also at the RedBull Ring (A).
