Martins and Leclerc neck and neck in testing

On a track that he particularly likes, Victor Martins got his Spanish weekend off to a good start. At the end of the 45 minutes of free practice, the ART Grand Prix driver stood out as the fastest in the field but Arthur Leclerc (Prema) behind him did not let go.

It was with a best lap of 1'32"796 that Victor Martins moved to the top of the timesheet this Friday morning in Barcelona. The only driver able to go after him, or at least get closer to him, Arthur Leclerc finally settled for 2^e time of the morning just 76 thousandths behind the Habs, making them the only ones under 1'33 in Catalonia since Roman Stanek (Trident), who completed the Top 3 of the session, clocked 1'33"304.

Second Frenchman engaged in F3 this season, Isack Hadjar (Hitech GP) kept a low profile this Friday morning. With only 9 laps on the clock, the lowest total of the session, the Ile-de-France resident finished in 19th place.^e place 1“6 from his compatriot. Very fast since the start of the season, the protégé of Red Bull should raise the tone during qualifying later today.
