Technical personnel of the GP3 Series have travelled to Barcelona’s Circuit de Catalunya in order to begin developing the new-look car which will be introduced for the 2013 season. Testing the chassis is newly-crowned Champion Valtteri Bottas.
Travelling to Barcelona directly from Jerez, where he has been at the GP2 test, Bottas is pleased to have been selected for trialling GP3’s latest machinery.
“I am very happy to work on the development aspects of a car,” says the Finn. “It is a new approach for me. During this session, my opinion really mattered as GP3 is a car entirely based on the driver’s training. The aim is to design the best possible car that will enable a young driver to showcase his skills and prove that he is the best.
“We have worked on tyre development with Pirelli as well and already found some solutions that make the car all the more difficult and fun to drive. I think GP3 is headed towards some great and interesting improvements.”
