David Fumanelli topped the times on the second and final day of GP3 post-season testing at the Estoril circuit.
The MW Arden driver set his fastest lap in the morning – setting a new GP3 track record – and then retained the top spot when rain hit the Portuguese circuit in the afternoon. His lap of 1m30.261s was less than a tenth of a second quicker than Daniil Kvyat in the second MW Arden machine, with Tio Ellinas third fastest in the Manor car.
Lewis Williamson (Atech) and Robert Visoiu (MR Arden) completed the top five in the morning session and overall, as the rain made the afternoon lap times over 12 seconds slower.
There were several red flags during the day, after spins for Eric Lichtenstein (Carlin), Mario Marasca (Trident Racing) and Meindert Van Buuren (Atech), and technical issues for the Lotus car of Jack Harvey.
GP3 teams will soon be back at work testing the new-for 2013 GP3 spec car.
