It was a hard working day, and we tested many different things involving the set-up, with interesting conclusions at the end. We trained starts to arrive to Barcelona confident enough in this matter”, Regalia said.

The 21 years-old driver also explained that “we´ve more than a month until race one in Barcelona. It´s going to be a long time for me! Because of I´d like to start right now.

ART Grand Prix is very strong, and I´ve had an easy and quick adaptation to my engineer and technical director at the team. Anyway we have ahead the most difficult challenge: a complete season”.
