At an exclusive pre-season test session at Portimão, Portugal, Aston Martin Racing tested the new 2013 Vantage GTE ahead of its campaign in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC).近日阿斯顿马丁进行了它的新测
Long-standing factory drivers Darren Turner (GB) and Stefan Mücke (D) attended the two-day test session, while new signings Bruno Senna (BR), Rob Bell (GB) and Frédéric Makowiecki (FR) sampled the V8-powered racer for the first time.看起来一共有5个车手，与阿斯顿新订长期合约的英国dt（GB=great british），还有sm（D是哪个国家的简称？？不知道诶）还有跟娃一样的新签约的车手来自大英的rob bell，和来自法国的feeder。。（尼玛名字真难写）
John Gaw, Aston Martin Racing team principal:啊斯顿塞车的头头说“Despite the weather being wetter than expected, this didn’t hamper our test session. In fact, it worked out well because all the drivers drove in wet, damp and dry conditions and, in the end, we actually complete more kilometres over the two days than we had initially planned. The car has started this year like it finished last with great pace and reliability; although, of course, we don’t know how much our competitors have also improved during the winter.尽管天气潮湿超乎我们的想象（请问英国啥时候有晴天啊？）但这并不能组织我们的测试计划。事实上，我们的车手都在湿地，干地各种情况下完成了测试，测试距离超出预期。今年车子的速度和去年的一样快。然而，我们并不清楚我们的竞争对手在这个冬天做了多少努力。
“Importantly, all the drivers gelled and were close on lap-times – it’s an excellent start to the team’s working relationship – and we exceeded our ambitions for the first test session.”
Darren Turner: “We’ve had a really good test. Although this isn’t the first time we have run the new Vantage GTE it’s the first time we’ve been able to run it in anger and put some serious mileage on the car. It does feel like a very good step forward. The team has done a great job over the winter and made some significant improvements. For me personally, it was probably as exciting to drive for the first time as the first drive of the DBR9. I have a really good feeling about the car and I’m looking forward to the next test in Atlanta in a few weeks time.我们有一个非常好的测试，不翻了，不是娃的就不是重点＝。＝
“Last year we only had one car in WEC and this year we have two Pro cars and two Am cars so at the test we had some new faces with the team. I’ve been team mates with Rob Bell before so I know how handy he is behind the wheel and what a team player he is. It’s the first time I’ve worked with Freddy but I’ve raced against him many times and always enjoyed our battles.
“Bruno certainly had a baptism of fire as his first run in a GT car was in the dark and the rain but he did amazing job and I was surprised at how quickly he adapted to the car. Although the final member of our squad - Peter Dumbreck - wasn’t at the test it’s good that this bunch of drivers is working well together; there’s a great atmosphere in the team.”布鲁诺遇到了严峻的考验，因为这是他第一次在黑暗的雨中驾驶gt，但是他完成的非常棒～（说娃不错哦，爱这位队友）他的适应程度令我感到惊讶。
