Talking after several laps in the track safety car, Guintoli said: "Snetterton is really good and quite different to those circuits I have visited already. Despite not looking as technical as Cadwell or Oulton Park, you need to be precise and very confident for the fast corners.
"Having John with me today has been a great bonus. His experience around here is huge and he has been able to show me some good techniques and areas where I can make up time."
Guintoli will now enjoy a winter break before getting in visits to the final few circuits in January, before pre-season testing commences.
