Hubert tops final day of pre-season testing, Ferrari's Ilott second

Hubert - the highest placed driver in last year's standings to return to GP3 for 2018 - set his best time of 1m31.751s in the morning session.

Ilott also finished runner-up in the times on the previous day behind Campos Racing driver Leonardo Pulcini, and his quickest lap from Wednesday was 0.029s adrift of the top spot.

Completing the top three in Wednesday morning's session was another ART driver - Jake Hughes - who was 0.232s adrift of Hubert and ahead of Dorian Boccolacci (MP Motorsport) and Pulcini.

In Wednesday's afternoon session, Trident's Pedro Piquet and Tatiana Calderon of Jenzer Motorsport both spent time at the top of the leaderboard, but a late lap from 2017 Silverstone reverse-grid winner Giuliano Alesi, sent the Trident driver to the top of the board.

Calderon maintained second in the afternoon times ahead of Piquet, while Juan Manuel Correa and top Arden driver Joey Mawson rounded out the top five.

The laptimes in the afternoon were over a second slower than the morning's running for most drivers.

Alesi's benchmark - a 1m32.901 - was 1.149s slower than Hubert's fastest time of the day.

Alessio Lorandi's running on Wednesday was curtailed thanks to an engine failure on his Trident-run car during the morning running.

He therefore finished at the bottom of the times in both sessions after not getting out on-track during the afternoon.

The test was the final outing for the teams and drivers before the season kicks off at the same venue, on the support bill for the Spanish Grand Prix, on May 11-13.
