That's a surprise. But not a really good lineup for Rapax...

Richie will test with Status in Abu Dhabi, at least. We'll see if he keeps the seat for the entire season.

What exactly is wrong with Sirotkin? He is a rookie but he is fast

[Juntos]

Sirotkin at Rapax GP2? Who could have seen this coming?

[mgcsaylor]

Chras-amanas testing for Hilmer...was hoping he'd be gone from GP2.

[mgcsaylor]

Damn spell check! Crash-amanas!

Daniel de Jong confirmed to stay at MP Motorsport(Hardly surprising since his fater owns the team)

ART and Nato 15 to 30 seconds off the pace in the morning, despite high lap counts. Simulating safety car conditions?

[Formulahistory]

DAMS: Pierre Gasly – Alex Lynn
Carlin: Julián Leal – Marco Sørensen
ART: Stoffel Vandoorne – Nobuharu Matsushita
Racing Engineering: Alexander Rossi – Jordan King
Russian Time: Mitch Evans – Artem Markelov
Trident: Raffaele Marciello – René Binder
Campos: Arthur Pic – Rio Haryanto
MP: Daniël de Jong – Vittorio Ghirelli (?)
Rapax: Sergey Sirotkin – Robert Vişoiu
Arden: André Negrão – Norman Nato
Hilmer: Sergio Canamasas (?) – Axcil Jefferies (?)
Lazarus: Nathanaël Berthon – Zoël Amberg (?)
Status: Marlon Stöckinger – Richie Stanaway (?)

[WSR Fan]

Zoel Amberg is on the WEC provisional entry list for Silverstone, driving for Team SARD Morand in LMP2. Not sure if it's a one-off or for the whole season, but I suppose he could do what Sorensen's doing and do both series?

[SpeedsportMag]

Does anyone know about what happened with Axcil Jefferies?
Seems he set no time in all sessions - was he there or had Hilmer just one car?

[Rf1 Fan]

Dams seems to be a long way ahead of everybody else.

Gasly did set his fastest lap of the week on race trim full fuel and worn tyres.

Will be interesting to see what Vandoorne has on his pocket.

[chunterer]

Amberg confirmed at Lazarus for the season.

4 seats left?

[ivanalesi]

Let's hope Stanaway to get the Status seat and everyone's favorite carmaggedon driver Sergio Canamasas should be at Hilmer, but one of the MP and the other Hilmer seat might be subscribed to the revolving doors policy

[bella]

two race by race seats in a series like gp2 isn't bad though, isn't about average over the past few years?

[Juntos]

Lazarus took Zoel Amberg. High risk bet! http://www.italiaracing.net/newsint.aspx?id=53354&cat=4

What's the risk? They just took the money. This is always safer than betting on a "might be quick" driver without funding.

If Lazaraus con put together a good package, Amberg can fight for the mid-part of the standings as he did last year in 3.5 with AVF.
