DPR amazed by Bratt's performance

DPR amazed by Bratts performance

DPR team boss David Price has admitted he was wowed by the pace of rookie Will Bratt in Tuesday's GP2 testing at Paul Ricard, and is interested in signing him in the future.

Bratt, 20, ended the test second only to recent pacesetter Kamui Kobayashi of DAMS, and the result marked a return to the top of the times for the DPR team.

"He did an outstanding job," said Price. "He had tested for us once before and did a good job.

"When you consider he's got no real track record behind him, and has been in Spanish F3 this year, he surprised us all with his speed.

"There's definitely something there, and it would be nice to see more English guys in GP2. He's very bright and he's well worth us looking at him for next year."

In between his racing, Bratt is studying English History at the famous Oxford University. He switched to Spanish Formula 3 this season after three years in Formula Renault in the UK.
