Team iSport’s drivers set the best times in both morning and afternoon session during the first day of the collective tests of the GP2 Series presented in Barcelona.

Sweden's Marcus Ericsson was the quickest in the morning session ahead of Dani Clos (Scuderia Coloni) and Esteban Gutierrez (Lotus ART).

In the afternoon, Frenchman Tom Dillmann set an impressive performance by setting the best lap time, half of a second quicker than Gutierrez and Nigel Melker (Ocean Racing Technology).

A non-championship GP2 race will be presented in Abu Dhabi in November during the Grand Prix meeting.
