The SUNRED-BRT team's racing driver Michal Matějovský has just completed the testing in Brno and Imola. 'The first race in Valencia is drawing near, and I have been working very hard to get ready. To sum up the recent testing events, I can say that I am very pleased. At the Brno circuit, we did a lot of work adjusting the chassis and I set the fastest lap times, with a 0.7s margin ahead of the second-placed driver. After this testing event, on Friday afternoon, the entire team moved to the Imola circuit. This has been my first opportunity to acquaint myself with this beautiful but difficult track. In Imola, as opposed to Brno, my domestic circuit, the odds were in favour of drivers based in Italy. The best of them was 0.6s ahead of me. We were working throughout the day to improve the car's set-up. Moreover, I know where certain reserves can still be found, and so I believe that we will even be able to make further improvements for the race,' said Michal Matějovský after the tests in Italy.

In the immediate future, however, Michal Matějovský will take part in the upcoming racing event of the International Racing Circuit Championship of the Czech Republic (MMČR) in Brno, with a Seat TDI of the SEAT Sport Slovakia team. 'I am very glad that I have been invited by my colleagues from the SEAT Sport Slovakia team to take part in the development of this car, and I believe that I will be able to make good use of my Seat Leon Eurocup series experience,' Michal Matějovský commented on his cooperation with the team based in the Slovak Republic. After the MMČR event, Michal Matějovský is to carry out the final testing at the Valencia circuit, just before the first action of the Seat León Eurocup series.
