MF1 Racing Confirms Reserve Drivers for Bahrain and Malaysia
MF1 Racing is pleased to confirm that Markus Winkelhock
will be the team's third driver at the opening round of the
2006 FIA Formula One World Championship at the Bahrain International
Circuit in Sakhir. The 25-year-old German, who finished third
in the Formula Renault World Series last season, demonstrated
his considerable abilities while testing for the team during
the winter.
Giorgio Mondini will take over testing and reserve duties
at Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia. The Swiss driver,
also 25, was the Formula Renault V6 Champion in 2004 and has
shown similarly impressive potential in an F1 car during recent
testing.
"We are fortunate to have two such promising young drivers
testing for us," commented MF1 Racing Managing Director
Colin Kolles. "They are both very talented and capable
of providing useful feedback. I'm sure they will help us develop
the car to its maximum potential in preparation for the opening
races."
