Sergio Pérez talked about tests behind the wheel of a Ferrari.
We wrote that, as part of preparations for their debut season, the Cadillac team agreed with Ferrari to conduct tests in which Sergio Pérez will take the wheel. In Mexico the driver spoke about the upcoming tests — they will be two days long and will take place in Imola…
Sergio Pérez: “In November we will carry out tests that are very important for the team. We will work through the program with the engineers and mechanics so that we are 100% prepared for the new car’s testing program, which will begin in January.
These tests will also help me get back into shape. No matter how much I train in the gym, certain muscle groups can only be prepared on track — I need time and miles in the car. These two days of testing in Imola behind the wheel of the 2023 Ferrari will help me a lot.”
