Davide Valsecchi is visiting HRT's German headquarters this week.

Last month, it was reported that the 23-year-old is a candidate to make his formula one debut with the Spanish team in 2011 if he can find enough funding.

Davide Valsecchi, a race winner in GP2 this year, was the quickest of any of the young runners with F1's three new teams at the Abu Dhabi test in November.

"Italy should support him. He definitely did an awesome job. It took him a few laps to understand the car, while some of his colleagues did not succeed even after a full season," team boss Colin Kolles was quoted as saying.

Italiaracing magazine said Valsecchi's strong pace in Abu Dhabi "surprised" Kolles and his management colleagues, who therefore invited him to Germany for a meeting.
