Fantin moved from a successful racing season in Formula Three Sudamericana, where he won three races and achieved five podium finishes, to Europe in 2011 to undertake his first year in British Formula Three. Pietro has been a race winner in both of his British F3 campaigns.
** Julian Rouse, Arden Sporting Director comments:
------------------------------------------------------------
"We are delighted to have Pietro join the team this season. He had some very positive tests sessions with World Series by Renault in Barcelona and Motorland at the end of last year with Lotus and P1. Also he performed really well in the private ECU test he did with us in Barcelona. I was particularly impressed by how he worked with the Engineers and how keen he was to listen and learn how to continue to develop his driving. He also had a very dominant performance at the Norisring last year in F3, grabbing pole and maximum points. We are looking forward to a successful partnership in Pietro’s rookie year in FR3.5."
** Pietro Fantin comments:
------------------------------------------------------------
"Formula Renault 3.5 has always been in my plans, for a two years project, because of the car and high level of the competition. As a rookie, I hope to learn a lot, but also with the real target of being in the top 10, finishing all races and constantly scoring points. Arden Caterham had a great performance last year, and they always have a competitive car, so I believe this year won’t be different. I knew Julian Rouse before and my first contact with the team at Barcelona test was really good. Also I will have Augusto Farfus and Pedro Lamy in my team, since last year they have added a lot. I believe we have a complete team."
