MARC GENE'
Chassis 03 11th 35 laps time: 1:20.801
"Today's work was focused on the car set-up and I believe we are going in the right direction. There is still room for improvement especially in the slow part in order to be more competitive for tomorrow. I am pretty happy with my car's behaviour, I love driving on this track and I generally feel comfortable here. The latest modifications resulted into a general improvement of the total aerodynamic downforce. In the end I can say I am fairly satisfied because I feel that my car is good although there is stil a lot of work to be done in preparation for tomorrow."

GASTON MAZZACANE
Chassis 04 21st 42 laps time: 1:22.135
"Today turned out to be positive and useful to test different set-ups according to the changeable track conditions. Unfortunately at the end of the session although I was on new tyres I could not manage to improve my time: this was probably due to the specific characteristics of that set of tyres. However I am satisfied with today's work and I feel optimistic in view of tomorrow."

The T-car (chassis 01) is prepared for Gaston Mazzacane.
