SIC Racing Team enjoy positive Sepang test
Adam Norrodin: “Firstly I want to say a big thank you to the whole team; everyone has worked so hard these last four days and also to SIC for this opportunity to test here. We have been pushing a lot and have achieved what we set out to do here, so I’m very happy.
