Quote:
Former Formula One driver Niki Lauda got back behind the wheel of a Formula One car this morning at the Valencia circuit in Spain, spinning twice in just three laps.
Lauda hasn't driven a Formula One car since 1985, and got back behind the wheel today of a modern F1 car to get a feel for the chassis and improve his communications on the car with Jaguar drivers Irvine and De la Rosa.
After completing an installation lap this morning (Sunday) the Jaguar team boss went out for another lap and spun in turn two, which is a very tight corner. After Lauda and the Jaguar R2 returned to the pit the Austrian went out again and lost the car in turn two again.
Lauda is expected to drive again later on today at the Valencia circuit.

Dat hij nu geen lap-records ging breken kon ik ook wel begrijpen, maar 2 keer van het circuit in 3 ronden is toch wel veel.
