Andrew Jordan and Pirtek Racing concluded their pre-season testing programme at Donington Park this week as excitement builds ahead of the start of the new Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship season.Andrew made to the trip to his home circuit to put more mileage on his new Motorbase Performance-run Ford Focus during the BTCC’s only officially timed test of the winter, which took place as part of the series’ annual Media Day.After a busy morning of media commitments alongside the 31 drivers he will do battle with over the course of the 2016 season, Andrew then hit the track in his distinctive, chrome-liveried car for four hours of testing during the afternoon.Whilst some teams elected to chase the headlines with a quick time, Andrew and his crew instead focused on completing a pre-determined programme focused on final preparations for the season opener at Brands Hatch early next month.As such, he ended the day 17th on the time sheets but happy with how his pre-season testing programme had panned out.“We had a list of things that we wanted to try on the car to see if they worked, and whilst they didn’t have the impact we hoped for, it was a good day for us on track because we could eliminate them from our thinking,” he said. “After going back to our base set-up, we had planned to do a run on new tyres towards the end of the day but with a number of red flags we didn’t get the chance, although I’m not concerned about it.“The fact is that there are no points for being fastest on Media Day and it was more important for us to just focus on what we wanted to do. In recent tests, we’ve made some really good progress and I think we have a car that should be strong in terms of one lap pace and across a race run when we get to Brands Hatch for the first round.“With our pre-season testing programme at an end, I feel we’re in good shape and I can’t wait for the real business to start.”
