Ramón has already raced in F2, having competed in the
final round of the 2010 season at his home circuit of Valencia.
Despite his age and comparative lack of experience, Piñeiro
excelled from the outset by running inside the top 10 in free
practice, and he secured an impressive points finish in the second
race. This strong form has continued throughout pre-season testing
at Silverstone and Snetterton, where he consistently finished
amongst the top four fastest drivers.
Ramón graduated to Formula Two following a superb season
in the UK Formula Palmer Audi championship that saw him finish
third overall. The Spaniard remained in contention for the title
heading into the very final round, where he picked up his second
and third race wins of the season to consolidate his top three
position in the standings.
