Everything Trackside

The current Formula 2 and Redbull academy driver will get his first opportunity in a Formula 1 car this week at Silverstone.

Daruvala, who is currently 3rd in the F2 championship and is the highest placed Redbull backed driver, will drive last year’s Mclaren MCL35M as part of a 2 day test at Silverstone.

Super excited and grateful for the opportunity to have my first experience in a Formula 1 car testing with @McLarenF1 this week!😀
A big thank you to the Red Bull Junior Team, my family, my support team, @MumbaiFalcons , McLaren and to everyone who’s supported me along the way! pic.twitter.com/JuiQBkYCHU
