Alguersuari Sr. and Pinton

Team Durango will rejoin the World Series Formula V8 3.5 family in 2017. With 35 years of experience in the formation of many drivers, the Italian squad has played a capital role in the elite single-seaters program, helping to perform drivers such as Giancarlo Fisichella, Gianmaria Bruni, Davide Valsecchi, or Lucas di Grassi.

Now their confidence has moved to the World Series Formula V8 3.5 as its flagship Series and they hope to achieve important results with special focus in their role of scouting new young guns.
