Valsecchi sets morning pace at Paul Ricard

11 November 2008

Davide Valsecchi set the pace this morning as testing got underway at Paul Ricard, clocking a best lap of 1:18.496. 

The last test session of 2008 opened this morning at Paul Ricard on a 3D configuration wet track that only dried at the very end of the session. Davide Valsecchi once again confirmed his good form at the wheel of his Durango car setting the quickest laptime in a 1:18.496 just before the chequered flag. The Italian was half a second clear from Dams' Jerôme d'Ambrosio. 

Ending in the Top Three was Luca Filippi on Super Nova ahead of Romanian Michael Herck on DPR. The second Dams car posted the fifth laptime with Kamui Kobayashi at the wheel, ahead of British Oliver Turvey on iSport, Luiz Razia on FMS, Koudai Tsukakoshi and Vitaly Petrov on the two Campos cars.

Newcomer Fabio Leimer on Trident completed the Top 10. The session will resume at 2pm local time. Mike Conway will replace Oliver Turvey this afternoon at the wheel of the iSport car.
