The Alfa Romeo Sauber F1 Team has announced that Tatiana Calderón will complete two full days of testing in the Sauber C32 powered by a Ferrari V8 engine at Fiorano, Ferrari’s private test track in Italy, this weekend.
The Colombian test driver, who is part of Escuderia Telmex, had a first experience of driving a Formula One car in Mexico City last month, delivering a very good performance and showing great potential in the cockpit of the Sauber C37. The two days of testing at Fiorano will represent an excellent opportunity for Tatiana to advance in her learning process and development.
“It is great to be behind the wheel of a Formula One car again so quickly after my debut last month where I drove the Sauber C37 at a Promotional Event in Mexico. This next step will be even more special, as I will complete two full days of testing in the Sauber C32-Ferrari. It will be exciting to gain further experience and to learn more about these cars. I look forward to continuing to work, develop, and improve together with the team. I want to thank the Alfa Romeo Sauber F1 Team for giving me this opportunity and for believing in my capabilities,” said Tatiana.
Frédéric Vasseur, Team Principal Alfa Romeo Sauber F1 Team and CEO Sauber Motorsport AG added “We are pleased to have Tatiana Calderón completing two days of testing at Fiorano. She impressed the team with her dedication, focus, and skills at a recent Promotional Event. We are convinced that Tatiana has what it takes to drive at the highest level and look forward to seeing her progress and gain more experience at the upcoming test.”
