Huge success for the Auto GP testing days

22 drivers had a taste of the Lola B05/52 A real “sold out” event, with 22 drivers arriving in Magione on November 17 and 18 to try the championship’s Lola B05/52: Auto Gp couldn’t hope for a better start.

The new racing series which, starting from April, will award a 200.000 euros prize fund in every race weekend is raising more and more interest among drivers, teams and all the motorsport enthusiasts.

The great feedback that the organization had on the Italian track from the drivers who tried the car and from the teams interested in taking part in the championship is a proof that Coloni Motorsport is making the right choices.

Apart from the great number of entries for the test, the good thing was having drivers with very different experience, something which shows that Auto GP can be the perfect choice for a broad range of racers: on track, among the others, Carlos Iaconelli, already seen in GP2 and F.2, Marcos Martinez Ucha from Ws by Renault, Nicola De Marco from F.2, Stefano Bizzarri and Alessandro Cicognani respectively from European F.3 Open and Italian F.3, joined by Jarek Janis and Khalil Beschir, both with experience on the Lola B05/52 having raced in A1 GP with Team Czech Republic and Team Lebanon. With them, there was also Jan Charouz, already seen in F.3000, A1 GP and last year works driver for Aston Martin in the Lm P1 Le Mans program.
