Bearman hopes to follow Piastri F1 testing example
Oliver Bearman had a successful F2 campaign in 2023, earning four wins and a sixth place in the standings, and also participated in FP1 sessions for Haas. He hopes these impressive performances will lead to more opportunities in 2024, following in the footsteps of McLaren driver Piastri. Bearman recognizes the importance of preparation, as Piastri demonstrated, and wants to ensure he is fully prepared before starting an F1 campaign. He believes the new regulations allowing testing with a two-year-old car will be advantageous for young drivers, as it provides an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the current generation of cars. Bearman is confident that he will be ready for F1 in 2025 after another season in F2 and a yet-to-be-defined F1 testing plan.
