THE ITALIAN DRIVER, CONSTANTLY AMONG THE TOP TEN, WILL CONTINUE HIS JOB NEXT WEEK AT SPIELBERGRiccardo Agostini has successfully completed the first two-day official test of the FIA Formula 3 European Championship, which took place Friday and Saturday at the Hungaroring racetrack.

The Italian driver has consistently obtained placements among the top 10, successfully completing the program he set for himself to follow up with the Eurointernational team.With just over two weeks from the beginning of the season (the first event is scheduled at Silverstone, England, over the 19th and 20th of April weekend) and a further session of collective tests on the Austrian Red Bull Ring track, scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday, Agostini has started to take all references, experimenting with different set-up solutions, so starting a job that will end just next week.

If the first target, perfectly centered, was to enter the top ten, at Spielberg Riccardo will aim even higher, always within the main intention of familiarising with the team in order to better prepare the beginning of the season.

“The two days at the Hungaroring have been very productive. - Agostini commented - It has been my first on-track confrontation with the others. I was still lacking of a little something to fall within the top 5, but it’s a good start”.Agostini finished eighth at the second round of the first day of practice, obtaining a best time of 1:36.936 (four tenths above the leader Max Verstappen). During the second day, as a sign of his constant progression, dropped down to 1:36.769.
