However team boss Giuseppe Mazzotti believes his Italian charger will fair far better now that he has some extra experience in his side. “Because of bad luck, because of some evident lack of experience, his 2013 season was nota s successful a sit could have been. I’m quite sure that the 2014 could be the right season to emerge – he showed some good potential and he will still improve.”

Capitanio is now one of five drivers to have signed up for the upcoming Alps season with Fortec running Martin Kodric and Charles Leclerc. Meanwhile Tech 1 Racing have signed Canada’s Luke Chudleigh, while TS Corse will have veteran Pietro Peccenini in their Tatuus machine.
