Mahindra Racing's Edoardo Mortara found himself quickest again on the third day of pre-season testing in Valencia, having finished yesterday best of the rest too. Mortara managed a 1m21.680s, with the session starting in damp conditions from overnight rain.
Joining Mortara at the top end of the timings was Andretti's Jake Dennis and Nyck de Vries in third, making it two Mahindras in the top three. The pace of the Mahindra will certainly be getting fans excited, with Mortara also ‘winning’ the fake race that was simulated on Tuesday afternoon.

Antonio Felix da Costa rounded out the top 10 as he familarises himself with his new Jaguar TCS Racing machinery.
It was a damp start to proceedings on Wednesday’s only session, with rain falling overnight and making for a different track surface to what was experienced so far this week. However, the Spanish sun made an appearance and soon the times were falling.
The chequered flag brings to an end the fourth session of the week, with Wehrlein quickest on Monday, followed by Mortata in Tuesday’s morning session. Dan Ticktum of CUPRA KIRO secured the best time of Tuesday afternoon.
