The 21-year-old racer from Vicenza made his GP3 debut with Trident in the closing rounds of 2012, and the great results achieved became a perfect foundation for a full-time challenge.

The Italian-based Team, owned by Maurizio Salvadori, is particularly proud of this move as it represents an ulterior confirmation of their trust in the abilities of Italian racers.

Trident will be a unique developmental environment in European racing. Venturini already proved his skills in testing in Estoril, and he will be aiming at some top-notch results this season.

Trident is set to be back on-track in the next preseason test for the GP3 Series at Barcelona, from March 12 to 13.

Giovanni Venturini: “The decision to stay with Trident has followed a precise analysis. During the off-season, I drove for two other teams in testing, and I'm convinvced that this is the right choice, from both a technical and personal standpoint.

In last week's collective test, I found a great chemistry with the car and I think we can definitely be a struggle for the title. It's going to be a hard-fought series with at least eight great candidates.

In the end, I think that consistency will be the key, and that's the main direction we're headed”.
