21/12/2001 Zandvoort Masters
Artur Costa, Matt Maple and Rich Smith are, as we speak, involved in what is billed as the biggest GP3 event ever! According to reports there are 193 drivers taking part in the Zandvoort Masters, and it will surely prove an excellent finale to the 2001 season. Artur Costa has been flying in early tests and is heading for an attempt at another wet weather world record! This is also the first time that both Matt Maple and Artur Costa will run in BSR colours! More news will be posted as soon as its available.
