Turvey to test for iSport

Turvey to test for iSport

British Formula 3 championship leader Oliver Turvey will test for GP2 team iSport International at Paul Ricard next week.

The former McLaren Autosport BRDC Award winner is the clear favourite to win the British F3 title at next month's Donington Park finale and is hoping to step up to GP2 next season.

iSport have one vacant seat for this winter's Asia Series, with both seats still to be filled for next season's main championship.

"I feel like we've got a good chance of winning the F3 title and, after that, the next step is GP2," Turvey said in this week's Autosport.

"My focus is to get a drive with a top team in GP2 for next year. Asia is a possibility, but it will depend on budget."
Fellow British F3 racer Marcus Ericsson, GP2 regular Diego Nunes, and former Champ Car race winner Nelson Philippe will also test for iSport next week.

GP2 race winner Andi Zuber will test for FMS International, while another British F3 front-runner, Sergio Perez, will test for GP2 champion team Campos Racing alongside current driver Vitaly Petrov.
