Jaguar selects Carroll and Evans for second test

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Jaguar Racing will field Adam Carroll and Mitch Evans for all three days of the upcoming second test at Donington Park, allowing for more consistent data to be collected for the 2016/17 season.

The first week of testing for season three of the all-electric championship saw Carroll in action for all three days, while the second car was split between Evans, Alex Lynn and Harry Tincknell.

The New Zealander, who currently competes in GP2 with Campos Racing, ended the opening test fastest of the four Jaguar drivers and was 1.6s off the pace of Jean-Eric Vergne, although the team was not chasing ultimate pace and look set to improve their standing in the times.

Carroll is rumoured to already be signed to a race seat, but Jaguar insists that nothing is yet official and they will announce their drivers on September 8, following the final day of testing.

Jaguar is the only team yet to finalise their driver line up for the upcoming season.
