Gasly: "Special to drive there in an F1 car"

AlphaTauri made clever use of today's test day at Imola. The team brought an old Toro Rosso STR13 from 2018 and also used the day as a filming day with the new AlphaTauri AT01, which could be ridden up to 100 kilometres.
Close to home
Imola is a stone's throw away from the home base of the Italian race stable. It's only a fifteen kilometer drive from Faenza to the circuit. Imola is still doing her best to get a spot on the revised F1 calendar.
Back on the track
Pierre Gasly reacted satisfied after the test: "I was really happy to be back on track after such a long wait. I had really missed that feeling you get from driving so it was incredible to be back in the STR13 and the AT01. We had a really smooth day, doing some laps in both cars."
"I woke up this morning feeling excited and happy and I will fall asleep tonight in the same mood. It was also special to drive a Formula 1 car at Imola, which is one of my favourite tracks. I think we are now ready for Austria", concludes Gasly.
