Armaan Ebrahim geared up for Spa challenge

Spa–Francorchamps (Belgium) :

Armaan Ebrahim, the 22–year old from Chennai, will renew his campaign in the Formula 2 Championship here this weekend when the fifth and sixth rounds will be held after a six–week break. It will be a busy week for Armaan with back–to–back races scheduled for Spa and Nurburgring, Germany (July 2–3). Armaan sponsored by JK Tyre, Amaron and Trimex, will be looking to pick up valuable points to add to the six he gained in the second round at Silverstone. Ahead of the Spa races, Armaan had a test session at Snetterton earlier this month when he ran much of the four outings with a configuration to conform to the track conditions at the famous Belgian circuit, one of the five current Formula 1 venues added to the F2 series this season. "After a decent start to my campaign at Silverstone, I had a disappointing outing at Magny–Cours during the third and fourth rounds. "I want to put all that behind me and focus on gaining some points at Spa. During the test at Snetterton this month, we opted to run on old tyres and with a low down–force as part of our preparations for the Spa rounds. "It will be my second outing at Spa since 2009 and I am quite excited to be racing at this World famous track," said Armaan. The Spa weekend opens with two free practice sessions on Friday, followed by two qualifying rounds and the two races over the following two days. "We had a long break after Magny–Cours and I just can' wait to get back to racing. I spent the free time between races working hard on my fitness and I am hoping to deliver a strong result at Spa." added Armaan.
