Ferrari-Testfahrer fährt statt Valtteri Bottas in Zandvoort Formel-1-Training for Sauber

If you stay longer in 2024, the Formel-1-Team will set up an F1 Rookie in Auto in the seasonal exploration for both Trainings. It is not possible for Sauber to continue training in Zandvoort. It was an überraschender that Fahrerwahl was. Statt eines Piloten from their own Academy came to a Ferrari-ersatzfahrer in Zuschlag.

The 24-year-old Robert Shwartzman went to the 1. Training of the Niederlande-GP with the C44 test. Ab FP2 is with Valtteri Bottas in Auto. The best Sauber is the best service for the races. An interesting location for Shwartzman, who gets an F3 title as Rookie 2019 as a great talent of the Ferrari Driver Academy.

But in the form 2 pieces Shwartzman. 2020 started in shares, as title fight of the Ferrari Academy partner Mick Schumacher and Callum Ilott was defeated. I continue in 2021 during the Rookie Team colleagues Oscar Piastri Deutsch. It was the first end of the F1 ambitions.

Sauber sets up Shwartzman has his own F1 Juniors in Auto

Ferrari kept Shwartzman as a test and replacement driver and gave him two Friday training sessions in 2022 and 2023. This is a village in the Hackordnung, where the young Oliver Bearman competed and had more formal sport prospects, war after Bearman’s sensational debut in the Werks cockpit in Saudi Arabia.

Shwartzman took the Ferrari car on the Sports Car Track in 2023, a year in the GT World Challenge and a year later started in a Ferrari Hypercar in the Long Distance World Championship. So came the Sauber drive and it was super surprising. First right on the point, the Sauber has some quirky candidates for the Rookie Training hat.

For a ​​​​gibt is the aspiring Formula 2 Master Theo Pourchaire. It would last years in the Sauber Academy, and continue in the Freitags-Einsätze. For others have started to perform the first Red Bull Cadre pilots and the activation of the F2-Gesamtvierten Zane Maloney as replacement driver-verblichtet.

Sauber has swum a Formel-1 driver for 2025

Shwartzman’s Sauber debut found a certain Zeitpunkt status, and the team continued with his team collection for Nico Hulkenberg in 2025. Pour chair and Maloney in those things that do not fit in the cork. So power is the duration of Sinn, the Freitags-Trainings for other drivers to use.

Ob Shwartzman durch sein Auftauchen non in de erweiterten Kandidatenkreis rutscht, ist reine Speculation. Sober performance with the F2-Siegen and greater performance as a Ferrari-Tester is probably not a better Fahrer. Fest steht auch, that’s Sauber’s COO Mattia Binotto knows best. Binotto was Ferrari Team Chief from 2019 to 2022 and could follow Shwartzman’s career from the following.

The options for Sauber are currently untouchable. Now that the Cadre drivers of Maloney and the Einsatzfahrer Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu no longer inspire. So go to different Rookie alternatives. In regional media the names Felipe Drugovich (Aston-Martin-Tester, F2-Meister 2022) and Gabriel Bortoleto (McLaren-Junior, active F2-Zweiter) are active.

The two couples who attended IndyCar master Alex Palou were present during their stay in interviews explicitly for salvation. Für Sauber works in Abwarten. No one goes to the Formel-1-Fahrermarkt anymore. Red Bull hat no longer works on the two Sitze staying. Sergio Perez and Daniel Ricciardo came onto the market together with Mr Liam Lawson in this month, it is impressive.
