Team Pakistan driver, Adam Khan gives his thoughts on the last few days…
"The testing this week has gone ok. I struggled the first two days due to gearbox problems. However this morning we found a lot of improvements, which is really good. I believe if we'd have found these a day or two ago, we'd have been higher up than the 9th position we got today. Overall though I'm pretty pleased with how it's gone and all credit to the team, who have been doing a brilliant job. I'm now preparing for Brands Hatch, by training and hopefully some more F3000 testing in Italy next week."

However the team are confident Adam is capable of running in the top 10 in the first race at Brands Hatch. Adam did a excellent job at developing the new A1GP car, and covered a lot of mileage, which him in good stead for Brands Hatch."
