It will be a new course for all of the racers. Time is very tight for any major mechanical changes compared to the first visit. There has been in depth reviews of the mechanics after each race. We have also centered our attention on practising the procedure of starting the race to be on point and get the best out of the race”, states Albert Llovera.
