The pilot from Puglia concludes: “ My goal is certainly to help the team, but I also want to prove to myself that I can still be competitive in racing. After two days of testing, we all know that asphalt temperature and tire management will be key factors in achieving good results this weekend, and I am confident that I can have a good race on Sunday with a good result. »
