“I am really excited for this race. We were looking forward to it after Curvelo. Our car is good, I was able to post an excellent lap time and, with the best time, we’ll have one more overtaking option. There are things we can improve for the race. The times are tight because it’s a small track, but we’ll try to improve even more,” Casagrande said, who highlighted the new autodrome, the first asphalt track in Santa Catarina.
