good news for him, one of the strongest teams out there

Quite suprised he has gone to Japan over Europe... If he wants to win Macau, than thats a good desision.

I think he realises he has a much better chanse winning the Japanese championship
too much talent in the Euroseries

First official F3 test in Japan. Ericsson is right where he should be, on top!

British F3 testing the other day

Daniel Ricciardo was fastest again in the first day. Hes looking very good. He might be a title contender in his debut season.

My pick is Daniel Ricciardo For the championship.

nice to see him on the top of the timetables

I would keep an eye on Oakes though, he has more experience and I think that could be an advantage here

For sure, also max chilton will be fast too.

Im just hoping Daniel is the one australia is looking for, it's about time we had a young gun who is talented and now has the funding to go all the way!
