Monteiro enters World Series by Nissan
With top team carlin motorsport
The Minardi Cosworth Team has announced today in a Press Conference held at Melbourne that it has signed Tiago Monteiro as an official test driver for the 2004 season. As such, the 27-year-old, from Portugal, will assist the team with its test and development programme in the course of the year, “dovetailing” these commitments with a full season competing in the World Series by Nissan, where he will be driving for the highly regarded Carlin Motorsport organisation. He will not take part in Friday test sessions during Formula One weekends.
Monteiro has certainly not trodden an “accepted” route to the top levels of motor racing, having started his career in 1997, in the French Porsche Carrera Cup, after being inspired by his father, was also a competitor in the series. Since then, Monteiro has raced successfully in a wide variety of categories, including the French F3 Championship, French GT Championship, Andros Trophy (ice racing), and FIA International F3000 Championship, while also competing in a number of significant one-off events, such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Macau Grand Prix, Korea Super Prix and Marlboro Masters. In 2003, he joined Fittipaldi Dingman Racing for a season in the hard- fought Champ Car World Series, once again proving himself to be both versatile and highly competitive, having achieving a Pole Position in Mexico City and having leading the St. Petersbourg and Mid-Ohio races.

Dit is weer een knaller van formaat die het World Series veld mag vervoegen! En dit in combinatie met een topteam als het Engelse Carlin, die gaan volgens mij goede prestaties neerzetten.
Voor diegene die het nog niet moesten weten, Tiago Monteiro is ook testpiloot bij Minardi F1!
