Abu Dhabi – Day 2: Nato in the Rhythm
If Alex Lynn set the best overall time of the day, Frenchman Norman Nato made his mark by taking first place during the afternoon session at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi.
If Stoffel Vandoorne quickly led the discussions during the morning session ahead of Alexander Rossi and Arthur Pic, the standings changed in the middle of the session in favor of the DAMS drivers. GP3 champion Alex Lynn clocked a good time of 1:49.648 to surpass his new teammate Pierre Gasly.
Behind the two drivers of the French team, we find the main actors of the 2014 GP2 season. Raffaele Marciello finished third ahead of Stoffel Vandoorne, Mitch Evans, Alexander Rossi, Julian Leal, and Arthur Pic.
Unlike the first day of testing, lap times did not improve during the afternoon. Nevertheless, the Frenchman Norman Nato finishes just a few thousandths behind Alex Lynn thanks to a lap completed in 1:49.697. The tricolor driver leads his teammate André Negrao and Raffaele Marciello. Sergio Canamasas follows in fourth position ahead of Rene Binder, Stoffel Vandoorne, Sergey Sirotkin, and Zoel Amberg.
