 Coloni
Motorsport in the front rows of the starting grid in the third date
of the Italian F.3 Championship in Magione thanks to Marco Bonanomi.
With
an excellent time of 1.07,1 Marco Bonanomi and Coloni Motorsport
conquered the second row of the starting grid in the first date
of the Italian F.3 Championship on Magione track. The young Italian
yet from the free practice showed to be very competitive, running
in the first positions, and today too he confirmed his good performances:
in the morning session he obtained immediately his best time, even
if a mistake on the Montesperello corner stopped him for the rest
of the session, don’t’ allowing him to run again before
the afternoon session. In the afternoon, utilizing old tyres, Marco
was again one of the fastest drivers, but he couldn’t improve
his time unlike his opponents that still had new tyres to use.
An
unlucky day instead for Christian Montanari: after having lapped
without problems in the morning session, in which he decided not
to use his new tyres set, a technical trouble, that kept him from
running with the new tyres, stopped Montanari. Christian couldn’t
so improve his 1.07,4 time, which will allow him Sunday to start
from the ninth position. But Christian, as in Misano, showed to
be capable of great starts, even from not favourable positions.
Coloni
Motorsport yet looks forward to Sunday race, thanks to the results
achieved also in the qualifying session and can so aim again to
obtain great results on the “home” circuit of Magione.
Marco
Bonanomi, driver: “I’m very happy with the car, we continue
to develop her and to work well. I’m a little disappointed
for the mistake I made in the morning, I could have aimed straight
to the pole position. In the second session I ran with old tyres
and we tested also new aerodynamic solutions that gave good results,
we were the fastest team with the old tyres. Sunday I’ll do
the best I can and I will be very careful of avoiding the mistakes
made in Binetto and Misano, I’m sure that we will get good
results”.
Christian
Montanari, driver: “I will start from the middle of the grid,
unfortunately this will be a difficult race. We didn’t find
immediately the right setup and so I will start from a not so good
position, but I’m however sure that we will obtain good results.
We’ve also to wait for the warm-up, today we yet found more
performing solutions and we can look forward to the race”.
