International News Update - Seb, Matt & Jann set for GP3 - Andy Meyrick does a Charity Bike Ride 

Jake'The Rocket' Rattenbury stars in the USA

by Rob Allender

 

There are High Hopes of more major high profile success in the crucial GP3 championship after the Welsh Trio of Seb Morris, Matt Parry & Jan Mardenborough blitzed day one of the final pre-season test ahead of the first GP3 races at Barcelona on 08-10 May, as part of the Spanish Grand Prix package.  Although testing is different from actual Qualifying And Racing Seb (@SebMorris31),  Jann (@ Jannthaman) & Matt @Mattparryracing) blitzed GP3 testing at Barcelona with a Welsh 1-2-3 at the end of day one! They then backed that up with solid performances on day 2 with Jann less than 3/10ths of a second away from the fastest representative time, and both Seb & Matt close and both less than ½ a second away from the fastest representative time and all 3 of them in the top 10!

 Seb Morris who is with Status Grand Prix seemed pleased with the progress he made during the 2 day Official test. 'It was a really positive day today, P5 at the end of the Official GP3 Test Day with Status Grand Prix. On to Barcelona!' 

 

At the same time Matt (Korianen Racing), who went through the MSA Team UK programme at the same time as Seb, showed he has a wicked sense of humour by posting this ‘ Me and my fellow Welsh bro @sebmorris31 - Seb had just finished telling me how long it took him to do his hair in the morning!

 

Seb also showed he was up for a laugh by replying  Hahahaha - we noted that Matt was also a bit tanned. Sunbed anyone.... See Sebs Press Release

 

 

 Meanwhile Jann Mardenborough who was quickest of all in the first session on day 1 in his Carlin run car, was happy to be 2nd quickest over the 2 days! This will the Janns 2nd year in GP3, and he will be hoping to push on having won the Sprint race at last years’ German Grand Prix!
