             WORLD 
              SERIES: READY TO RACE IN ZOLDER 
             Markus 
              Winkelhock (Draco Multiracing USA) has demolished the World Series 
              by Renault lap record at the Paul Ricard HTTT Circuit, putting in 
              an impressive lap time during the morning session of 113.813. 
            At 
              the end of two days at Paul Ricard, the 30 entered teams in the 
              World Series by Renault have completed almost 38,000 kilometres 
              of pre-season testing with the new, 425bhp Formula Renault 3.5. 
              Having succeeded in solving some initial technical problems, the 
              drivers, representing 16 different countries, are now ready to race 
              in Zolder! 
             
               
               
               
               
              The reliability of the cars and equality among the drivers have 
              far exceeded expectations. A new record in Bugatti at Le Mans (Valles), 
              a new record for the category in Valencia (Porteiro), and again, 
              a new record at Paul Ricard. 
            Latest 
              WSR news is that the Pons Racing team has unveiled their new car 
              livery today, with the colours of Repsol and Telefonica, two big 
              companies that are heavily involved in the high tech single-seater 
              categories. 
            The 
              best lap set by Matteo Meneghello has not been officially published, 
              as it has been proved that the driver cut one of the chicanes.
