Ferrari Test for the F3 European Champion

Published on 18 April 2014 by Johan Peeters

The combined efforts of the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) and the Ferrari Driver Academy will give the 2014 Formula 3 European Champion the opportunity to test drive a Formula 1 car at the end of the season.

The overall quality of this years’ teams and drivers is a sign that the season will be a hotly-contested one, so the final result will highlight the talent of the 2014 champion even more. And winning the title will be doubly worthwhile as the lucky driver will be invited by Scuderia Ferrari to test a Formula 1 car. This agreement is a telling sign of the confidence that the Ferrari Driver Academy has in the 2014 FIA F3 European Championship.

Luca Baldisserri, Head of Ferrari Driver Academy said: “The Ferrari Driver Academy firmly believes that a Formula 3 car is an excellent preparatory car and that every driver’s career should include a spell in one because of the special balance between grip and power, which is ideal for learning to drive a single-seater. This is why we choose to reward the winner with what is a dream for every racing driver, namely a day at the wheel of a Ferrari F1 car.”
