Marc Marquez was allowed to do a few test laps at the Red Bull Ring with a Formula One car. But before he could really get into the car of the Scuderia Toro Rosso, he first had to enter the simulator.
After a few laps in the real car, Marquez said, “It was always my dream to drive the fastest cars in the world, I had great respect for today and I did not sleep well, and in the end it was an incredible experience and an absolute one The highlight of my career. There is a big difference to MotoGP, especially the limited visibility was a big challenge, you feel much more restricted in the cockpit. The braking distance and the timing in corners are completely different, a Formula One car, of course significantly more downforce, which was especially fun in the corners. “
In the next few years Marquez excludes a change in Formula 1, however. He is fully focused on his MotoGP career. He wants to completely exclude a possible change in the future but not. Mark Webber, the coach for the test, Niki Lauda and Helmut Marko were more than thrilled with the performance and trust Marquez to be successful in F1 too.
