Maini brothers to race for Jenzer
Brothers, Arjun and Kush Maini, will drive for Swiss outfit Jenzer Motorsport this racing season with Arjun back in the GP3 after his strong 10th place finish in the driver’s championship last year.
Kush will switch over to Jenzer for 2017 after finishing fifth in the Rookie Championship in the FIA Italian F4 Championship, said a press release.
Arjun had a very promising debut season in the GP3 and despite missing the first four races, he was the youngest to finish in the top 10 of the driver’s championship.
He also got his first podium finish in the GP3 at the Hungarian circuit in late July last year.
“I am very excited to drive for Jenzer Motorsport for the second year in a row. I had a good 2016 season in the GP3 and got my first podium as well. I’m hoping to perform more consistently this year starting with a complete season and look forward to getting my first win in GP3. I missed out on Critical testing last year and am looking forward to 2017,” said Arjun.
Jenzer Motorsport, founded in 1993 by Andreas Jenzer, has won numerous drivers’ and teams’ titles in various championships and has competed in every season in the GP3 category since its inception in 2010, pocketing six wins in the GP3 Series along with 18 podiums.
The Swiss outfit has also competed in every season on the Italian F4 Championship, finishing second in the team championship and first in the driver championship with Marcos Siebert in 2016.
