This post is all about the new 2014 GP2 and GP3 champions.
Jolyon Palmer won the GP2 series championship at last months Sochi Autodrom with three races to spare ahead of both Stoffel Vandoorne and Felipe Nasr in the standings. So where going to see Jolyon Palmer next season? He should be a Formula 1 driver next season having won the GP2 chamionship as he will test with Force India for this weeks end of season test. If he brings sponsorship like previous champions have done for example Romain Grosjean 2011 GP2 champion (bringing Total sponsorship to Lotus back in 2012) and Pastor Maldonado 2010 GP2 champion (bringing PSDVA/Venezuelan sponsorship to Williams in 2011) he will be in Formula 1 with a Marussia or Caterham if they both survive. If not maybe a Test Driver with Force India or Indycar Series for 2015 which is more than likely option.
Meanwhile at at Yas Marina Circuit from last weekend, Red Bull Junior driver Alex Lynn won this years GP3 series championship ahead of both Dean Stoneman and Marvin Kirchhöfer in the standings. We will possibly see Alex Lynn in a top GP2 team or a top Formula Renault 3.5 Series team next season.
So, contractions to the new champions. Bring on 2015.
End of blog for now, new post soon, bye.
