Pierre Gasly recorded the fastest time of the whole test on the final day of the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 test at the Red Bull Ring.
The Tech 1 driver was the only man to break in to the 1m28s with his lap in the morning session. Nyck De Vries continued his positive testing form finishing second on the timesheet with Ignazio D?Agsoto ending third.
Two British drivers, Jake Dennis and Oliver Rowland completed the top five with yesterday morning?s pacesetter Steijn Schothorst the sixth fastest man on track.
William Vermont, Oscar Tunjo and Mikko Pakari were seventh, eighth and ninth respectably while Alexander Albon made an appearance in the top ten.
In the second session the times were a lot slower with Dennis leading from Rowland.
Again De Vries and Schothorst were amongst the frontrunners with Andrea Pizzitola and Pakari sixth and seventh on the timesheets.
Gustav Malja, Aurelien Panis and Alex Lynn all made it in to the top ten for the first time of the test, F3 racer Lynn returning to FR2.0 for a day to help out Prema.
But it was Gasly?s lap which alerted the attention, suggesting that he could be a major threat to the top step of the podium come Motorland.
De Vries has certainly showed at the Red Bull Ring that he will be a championship contender, with Esteban Ocon, Oscar Tunjo, Schothorst, Dennis and Rowland all showing their strong pace these past two days.
