Formula 3 was responsible for conducting two days of testing at Madring, during which Clerot completed 96 laps with the Rodin car. Coming from a round where he showed good speed in Monza, the first champion in the history of F4 Brazil seeks to repeat last week’s performance but convert it into points in this final round.
“A few weeks ago we completed two days of testing at Madring. Our program was carried out very positively, so that makes me confident for the races this weekend,” said Clerot, who highlighted some characteristics of the newest circuit on the Formula 3 calendar.

“I really liked the track, which has characteristics of different circuits, like Monaco, but also Jeddah and Baku. It was very good to drive and to push to the limit, and you get very close to the wall. I found it a fantastic layout,” adds Pedro Clerot, who is sponsored by Banco BRB.
Unlike the rest of the championship, the Madrid round will feature three races. Thus, the schedule is a bit different: Friday will have the only free practice and qualifying. Saturday will have the Sprint at 6:05 and race 2 at 13:00. Sunday will have the third race to close the championship at 4:45. F1TV shows all track activities.
