Colton Herta, who rides IndyCar for Andretti Autosport, has been tied to F1 driving for months. This was primarily from the Andretti Group, which has publicly admitted that he is wanting to get into F1 on his individual.
This 12 months, Colton Herta took on a enhancement function with the McLaren F1 staff and most lately drove the 2021 F1 motor vehicle at the Portimao circuit in personal tests.
Colton Herta, who has received seven IndyCar races, at the moment has 32 of the 40 super license points expected to race in Formula 1, but is at the moment under the handle of the FIA.
If the FIA approves the software, Colton Herta will join Scuderia AlphaTauri on the F1 grid in 2023.
“Shockingly, all get-togethers and teams have achieved an settlement,” Helmut Marko explained to SiriusXM’s SpeedCity Broadcasting following Sunday’s Dutch F1 Grand Prix.
“1st of all we want to have a very clear remedy[dalla FIA]. We should really have it in Monza … I am imagining of Monza “.
Colton Herta, 22, will sign up for AlphaTauri F1 as successor to Pierre Guthrie, who is anticipated to shift to the Alpine F1 team to substitute Fernando Alonso who has moved to Aston Martin.
If so, Colton Herta would grow to be the first American driver to enter F1 right after Alexander Rossi (Herta’s present IndyCar teammate) in 2015.
F1 groups are divided around Colton Herta’s F1 super license exemption, but Helmut Marko believes there are robust motives for approving his software.
“We seemed at the rules and spoke to the FIA. There are special restrictions where you can select a few several years[da quattro]mainly because of Covid and if a consequence is out of the driver’s palms, not the most points, I can give factors, ”said Helmut Marko.
“So it’s not unreasonable. He has won 7 IndyCar races, which I assume is equivalent to a Grand Prix, so it would be a shame if he didn’t get a super license.”
