Den afsluttende GP3-test forud for 2011-sæsonen endte med et solidt top 5-resultat til danske Michael K. Christensen.
Det danske talent, der endnu mangler at sætte underskrift på kontrakten med RSC Mücke Motorsport, har igen vist gode takter i testen – denne gang på Circuit de Catalunya.
I første session torsdag sluttede Christensen måske kommende teamkammerat Nigel Melker på toppen, mens det i anden session var Adrian Quaife-Hobbs, der var hurtigst.
GP3 genoptager arbejdet om tre uger, når det går løs med sæsonstarten ved Tyrkiets Grand Prix på Istanbul-banen.
