#F1#HappyTesting#F1Testing In case you've missed it but Haas will use a smaller pitwall this year with only 3 seats instead of 6 for some. The reason is simple. The logistical expenses drop with 250K euro, which they would rather spend to develop the car. #MsportXtra
Do you fancy some more #HappyTesting from unknown and forgotten drivers?
Such as Brazilian João Paulo de Oliveira who tested with Williams their FW27 in early February 2006 at Valencia?
For winning the German F3 championship in 2003 and Japanese in 2005. #F1#RetroF1
#HappyTesting John Hopkins switched with Liuzzi their machines. Back then Hopkins drove in the MotoGP for Rizla Team Suzuki(iirc).
He drove at Valencia with the Toro Rosso in November 2006 iirc. #F1#RetroF1
#HappyTesting Olivier Beretta took just place behind the wheel of the Larrousse LH93 at Estoril. #F1#RetroF1
In 1994 he would do 11 races (Spain was a DNS). After the F1 he became really successful in LeMans and the FIA GT Cup.
#HappyTesting Aguri Suzuki takes place in the white Tyrrell 020 the 17th of December 1991.
This was a test mule for Bridgestone, iirc @frentzen_hh took also that day place behind the wheel. #F1#RetroF1
