Filipe Albuquerque will step into the Racing Engineering car this weekend, to partner Spaniard Javier Villa following the team's first win of 2007 last weekend in Magny-Cours. Felipe's callup to the team comes following Ernesto Viso's huge accident in Race One, which will see the Venezuelan out of action this weekend following the concusion he suffered in the incident.
Filipe comes to the series as the reigning Eiropean Formula Renault champion, and has a good relationship with the Racing Engineering team, having worked with them in Spanish Formula Three.
"This will make for an ideal coordination between the drivers and the team, allowing Filipe, the 2006 Formula Renault Europe champion, to fully focuson maximising this great opportunity to drive one of the Racing Engineering's GP2 cars," the team said in a statement.
