Formula 1 junior Drugovich goes fastest on the Hankook iON Race at the Rookie Test

One day after the double-header in Berlin, the official Formula E Rookie Test took place at the same venue. The fastest man was Aston Martin’s young Formula 1 driver Felipe Drugovich. The Brazilian, driving for Maserati MSG, set a lap time of 1:05.509 minutes. “That was my first time on the Hankook iON Race tyre. I really enjoyed the test day and was positively surprised by Formula E. It is a very competitive championship. I did not expect the cars to be so much fun. I pushed more with every lap and the tyres lasted a very long time. That is good to see,” said the young Formula 1 driver.
