David Richert racing for Team Torino Motorsport.
In just his first day of testing this season, Niverville race car driver, David Richert, was able to post the fastest lap time of the day while driving at Autodromo di Franciacorta in Italy.
Richert, sponsored by Silver Jeans Co, was one of six Formula Renault cars that took part in yesterday’s test day in preparation for the upcoming races at Imola on May 1st.
Working with Team Torino Motorsport engineer Giacomo Notarrigo, who has 5 years experience with Ferrari F1, Richert was able to complete 110 laps during the day and consistently improve his time while gaining confidence with the race car. “It is very difficult to post fast lap times in this car when you don’t have the same budget as other drivers because the consequences are expensive if you make a mistake on track ..” states Richert, “…but I’m very happy to see that our hard work throughout the day paid off”.
Richert will now head to Austria on April 27th with Team Torino Motorsport as they complete testing at the famous Red Bull Ring, formerly known as the A1 Ring which hosted the Formula 1 Austrian Grand Prix. After Austria the team will immediately head to the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari in Imola for Richert’s first two races of the season on May 1st.
