SUCCESSFUL TESTS IN VALLELUNGA FOR GP RACING.
Two intense days of tests for GP Racing, the Venetian team who put both the Russian Roman Rusinov and the Italian Fabrizio Del Monte on the Vallelunga race track. The two will be the new pair that will compete in the next Euro 3000 Series Championship.
These two days have allowed the team to perfect the last details of the car with the race car drivers. Moreover, both Rusinov and Del Monte had a chance to get comfortable with the car and to interact with the technicians of the team.
Tancredi Pangiaro, Team Manager:
"I'm happy with the results of these two days. We ran a lot of kilometres during the tests and they really worked hard , regardless of their physical condition that is not at its best. The season has just begun and we have already seen a significant improvement from the first and second day. They worked very well with the team yesterday and today our results prove that . I believe that the future is bright with these two 21 year drivers who have just started the season and who are already in the top ten."
Fabrizio Del Monte:
"I'm very satisfied with the hard work and the results of these last two days. Yesterday was the hardest day for me because I had very little confidence with the car. Today, instead with all the great work done together with the team and with the race track at its best , I improved my time lap after lap throughout the day. This afternoon, once I was feeling comfortable with the car that had the right set up ,I managed to do my best ."
Roman Rusinov:
"This two- day session of tests in Vallelunga has been extremely positive for me. I gained a lot of confidence with the car and I immediately got on well with the team , in particular with my engineer. Together with the team, we worked on the set up of the car in preparation for the first race of the season that is coming up soon. Unfortunately, on the first day, I wasn't sure on how to exploit the new set of tyres but today, I managed to improve my time by using the experienced I gained yesterday. Overall, I am very satisfied with the results, seeing that I've had a long break of four months."
