Oakes to make Formula Master debut at Monza
Wednesday, 01 October 2008
British
Formula 3 International campaigner Oliver Oakes has been drafted into Vincenzo
Sospiri’s Euronova Racing ahead of this weekend’s (4/5 October) Formula Master
round at Monza.
The
20-year old will test the car for the first time tomorrow - before flying back
to Britain to test for F3
front-runners Carlin Motorsport at Donington
Park - returning to Italy to make
his debut at the final round of the Master Championship.
Oakes
said, “Euronova hasn’t had the strongest
of seasons unfortunately, but I’m hoping to reward them with a strong result.”
Oakes
faces a stern challenge as he will not only be making his debut with a new team
in an unfamiliar car and category, but also because he is competing for the first
time on the legendary track.
“I’ll be fine” he assures. “It’s one of the most famous circuits in
history, but I’m positive it’s going to be a nice experience - although it will
be a steep learning curve.”
Eurosport's
coverage of the Formula Master race weekend begins on Saturday 4 October, with Race
1 shown live at 12:15 (CET) on Eurosport International and Asia Pacific.
Sunday's
Race 2 will also be broadcast live on Eurosport 2 at 14:15 (CET).
