I have thought exactly the same. He probably would have challenged for the FRUK and British F3 title in the previous two years if he had accepted RSF. As it stands, I found his 2009 season with T-Sport quite odd. Good luck to him though.

Something of a surprise at Oulton today - the fastest Carlin car was only 3rd! Report here.
Good efforts by Scott Pye (Double R) and Menasheh Idafar (T-Sport), particularly since they were under Jean-Eric Vergne's lap record. I'd say the conditions were pretty prefect, though. |

Yes, he drove the car at Silverstone on the day after the Media Day, too, so hopefully that's another addition to the grid.

The teams have been testing at Snetterton on the new 300 circuit yesterday and today. Kevin Magnussen and Carlos Huertas shared the honours, which was interesting as this was mostly a new circuit to them all.
Report here, which includes a link at the bottom to the times in full. As the report mentions, this is the last official test before the first race meeting at Monza on April 16/17, only ten days away. |

Is Chritodoulou actually confirmed yet? Looking at the times, that must be the best lap Adderly Fong has ever done to be 7th! Good to see Richard Bradley out, its ashame he has never raced on British soil and uses a Singapore license. Was he just having a play out? He's with TOM's this year doing Japanese F3, so he could be a factor against the British regulars at Macau. It would be good if he dovetailed his Japanese commitments and did a few British F3 rounds, Ericsson managed to juggle that pretty well.

Yes, Adderley Fong did well, particularly compared to his new team-mate.
At the moment Richard Bradley is getting some test mileage before his campaign in Japan, but, as you say, Marcus Ericsson doubled up the two to some extent before, also with Double R, so Richard could do the same. As for Christodoulou, I honestly don't know. My guess would be be that he has some budget but not the full amount, so he will at least start the season because he's done all the tests. I hope so. |

With everything that happened in Japan recently, I believe the pre-season tests and maybe ever the first race have been delayed/cancelled. I would guess this is why Richard Bradley has now popped up in a British test...

Hadn't thought about that.
The situation is Japan really is dreadful even though they are instinctively doing their best to cope and go about their lives as normally as possible. It's off-topic, but this is what a friend of mine who works for Arai wrote: Quote:
