Senna looking forward to Spa F1 debut

22 August 2010

The upcoming Belgian Grand Prix weekend will be the first opportunity for Hispania driver Bruno Senna to enjoy the legendary track Spa-Francorchamps with a Formula 1 car. The Brazilian is looking forward to travel to Belgium and race at his favourite track.

“I always look forward to Spa-Francorchamps and I’ve raced there every year since 2005,” Senna said. “It is my favourite circuit of all the ones I’ve raced at and my first time there in a Formula 1 car will be very special for me. The track is very fast with lovely gradient changes and challenging high speed corners. It is one of those circuits where the more you push, the better the lap time will be.

“Spa is a medium downforce circuit and it demands a lot of high speed stability of the car, as the average speed of the corners is quite high. It will be very important to find a confidence-inspiring car balance to extract the best lap time possible. The downforce levels of the track are in line with what we have in our car and I have a good relationship with the circuit as well, so I am really looking forward to driving the car for the time.”
