While I was walking around the paddock, the day after  my interview with Kabir Anurag , I came across his manager, BRDC British Formula 3 race winner, Pavan Ravishankar and I got the chance to interview him too. MA: How has this year been so far [managing Anurag]? PR:  "I think It's been a learning year for him."  "This is his first full season in anything, so we're just kind of learning the ropes and everything, so It's been a big learning year and hopefully we'll be here again next year to do a better job".

In his debut round of Euroformula Open, Garfias took pole position for race one but was taken out in a first-lap accident, but capped off the weekend with a sixth and a fourth place finish in what was a cold and unpredictable weekend.
