The first day, we left time to the driver in order to have him adapt to a completely new situation regarding both the car and the track. The second and third day instead we worked on qualifying performance obtaining important chronometric feedback.Axcil has proven to be a talented driver, physically well prepared, very constant, determined and diligent.

"It's been a solid test. I've learnt so much from the team and engineers. The last three days have been extremely productive and I cant wait to get back in the car and build on our learning curve. The GP2 car has been amazing to drive!! So grateful to Trident for this experience:)

23 - JOHNNY CECOTTO

For the three test days, the Team's work was dedicated to adaptation research of the one-seater to the driver and performance achievement, in addition, during the third test day, two long runs were carried out as race simulation. Johnny is in excellent form and seems to have established a great feeling with the Team, demonstrated by the fact that he was able to, with great simplicity, earn the first position the second day and close the third day always in the top 3.

"It has been a very positive three days in Abu Dhabi and it was great to work with the my new team. Several people where in the team when I race here a few years ago but a there are quiet a few new people and it was excellent to get to know each other. I think that the pace over the 3 days was very good and we never finished outside the top ten which is very difficult in such a competitive championship. I look forward to the next test days Bahrain to continue with our test program.
