"Obviously I'm extremely pleased with this promotion," Van der Garde said. "The GP2 is an important series when your target is Formula 1. I really have to thank team boss Paul Jackson and Gulf Finance House, the team's new sponsor, for this opportunity and I can't wait to get behind the wheel. We furthermore took an option to stick with the team for the GP2 Main Series, so let´s hope all goes well in Asia."
The GP2 Asia series will start in the weekend of F1's Chinese Grand Prix, October 19th.
