Soucek replaces injured Bakkerud

Soucek replaces injured Bakkerud

Andy Soucek will make a GP2 comeback at Istanbul this weekend, replacing the injured Christian Bakkerud at Super Nova.

The Spaniard drove for David Price Racing in the series last season but his plans for this season collapsed when Fisichella Motor Sport cancelled his contract a week before the first race.

Soucek started the GP2 Asia series this winter with DPR, but was replaced at the team by Diego Nunes after the first round, where he finished third and seventh.

Although he is only expected to stand in for Bakkerud at Super Nova for one race, until the Dane recovers from the back injury he sustained in an accident in the second race at Barcelona last month, Soucek still hopes to find a seat for the rest of the season.
