Will the duel between the Penske and Ganassi teams continue in recent seasons?

The more time we have on track, the more we can learn. The more we progress in testing, the faster our development will advance. We have already defined the different aerodynamic configurations and set-ups that we will have to use. The car is so different from last year. There is still a lot to do. This week we are back at Sebring and we are going to work hard on the car. » The three teammates will in fact be hard at work today and tomorrow to continue their winter tests.
