The experienced Italian driver set the fastest lap time of the two-day testing in Barcelona.
One last test session before the launch of the GP2 Main Series 2008 season will take place next week in Le Castellet. The afternoon session started thirty minutes earlier than originally scheduled and lasted for three and a half hours in order to make due for the shortened session this morning. Racing Engineering driver Giorgio Pantano was the quickest in a 1:26.351 and therefore set the GP2 track record.

Thirteen drivers overall posted times quicker than 1:27.000 despite the fact the session was interrupted by numerous red flags.
This concluded another two-day testing. The GP2 Main Series circus will meet next week in Paul Ricard on March 12th and 13th for the last testing days before the opening of the 2008 Championship which will kick off in Barcelona on April 26th.
