Malaysian driver Nabil Jeffri has become the youngest ever to drive an official F1 test, at 16 years old. Nabil did straight-line aero testing and pitstop practice for the Lotus F1 team at the Duxford Airfield.
“It’s such an honour to have had this opportunity and it’ll be a long time before the excitement wears off. I’ll keep working hard to one day join Heikki, Fairuz, Jarno, and the rest of the F1 grid.”
Nabil will now head to China for the next round of the Formula BMW Pacific championship to be held this weekend. He has still been active at Malaysian karting events this year as well. Congratulations Nabil - here’s hoping you’ll be in an F1 car again soon.
