American Alex Rossi sets fastest GP3 time
ART Grand Prix fastest in qualifying shootout - GP3 news - GPUpdate.net
On Thursday afternoon the GP3 series was handing out race numbers for the first official GP3 season. In a 30-minute session at Paul Ricard a total of 26 drivers were trying to set the fastest lap in order to score car number one for his team. In the end ART Grand Prix driver Alexander Rossi set the fastest time.
26 drivers took part in a qualifying shootout around noon today in Le Castellet to decide race number allocation for the season. The 30 minute session took place on a 3D configuration track between 11:45 and 12:15 local time. Final classification was decided by the fastest lap set out of the three drivers from each team.
After a closely fought session it was Alexander Rossi who took the top spot for ART Grand Prix. The American was also the first GP3 driver to break the 1m19s barrier, posting a time of 1:19.927. Rossi's teammate Esteban Gutierrez took second place. Robert Wickens ended the session in third spot claiming numbers 4,5,6 for his team Status GP. Numbers 7,8,9 have been allocated to Manor GP after James Jakes posted the fourth quickest time, and RSC Mucke Motorsport will run with numbers 10,11,12 after Renger van der Zande claimed fifth place for the team.
