Jehan said, “I can’t wait to go racing again. Getting some time off at the end of last year was good. And I’m now raring to get the season underway. Bahrain is where I took my first Formula 2 win. It’s a track that suits my driving style. And I’m pretty sure we can do well there again.”

“The competition will be tough but we came away in a strong position from testing. I’m feeling at home with the team. And we go into the weekend confident that we can get some big results.”
