The LADA 110 2.0 cars have been updated for this week’s event in Valencia. The three Russian machines are now powered by a new engine, which is due to deliver some more horsepower.
The team are also hoping that it can take advantage of the compensation weight system to maximise every opportunity over the Spanish weekend.

Jaap Van Lagen commented:
"I'm very much looking forward to these races and hopefully we can put some of the bad luck behind us now. I'll be very interested to see how much of an effect the new engine has here, but the main thing is that we are obviously making progress."

Team principal Victor Shapovalov added:
"We had a very busy couple of weeks after Pau, as there was a lot of work to do in order to repair the cars and test the new engine. Now everything is ready and we can concentrate on doing a good job on what is generally a more conventional circuit than the last two we have visited. The most important thing is to have a clean weekend in order to put us in a strong position to capitalise on any chances that come our way."
