Bruno Senna finishes 3rd place @ Spa-Francorchamps F3
The brazilian racer Bruno Senna finished this friday (28) in third place at Spa Francorchamps, Belgium, for the round 11 of British F3. The dutchman Yelmer Buurman won the race after 32 laps and 31min22s800.
The teams found a lot of problems due to the troubled weather, and the drivers chose to start the race with wet tyres, and it gave to them an advantage over the drivers with dry tyres.
"I was flying at the end of the race, lapping 12 seconds faster than the leaders with dry tyres. With more one lap, I could have finished in second", says Bruno Senna.
Todays race was the first of the two that will happen @ spa. The last round will be tomorrow. "I'm confident, I believe that the team can do a good work and hopefully win the next race tomorrow", says the brazilian, who will start in second place.
Bruno Senna, nephew of Ayrton Senna, is currently the third overall, with 108 points. Mike Conway is still leading with 154 points.
