Valtteri Bottas is participating in private tests at Jerez

      Last weekend, Valtteri Bottas returned to driving a Mercedes during the Goodwood Festival of Speed. This week, the Finnish driver continued to pilot a Formula 1 car. The Mercedes team conducted private tests at Jerez on Monday and Tuesday as part of the TPC program (Testing of a Previous Car). Valtteri covered 113 laps during the test, as he announced on his social media. These tests may be part of Bottas's program to return to Formula 1. Rumors suggest that the Finn might compete as early as this season, replacing Franco Colapinto at Alpine, who has yet to meet Flavio Briatore's expectations.
