Super Aguri has today announced that Franck Montagny will race for the team at this weekend's European Grand Prix in place of Yuji Ide. Following advice received from the FIA, the Japanese driver will only participate in test sessions for the team. Team Principal Aguri Suzuki said, "We accept the advice offered by the FIA to allow Yuji to accrue the mileage he requires to improve in Formula One during our testing days only. The team has made every effort to ensure that Yuji settled into his new F1 surroundings and I think that he has coped incredibly well under the circumstances. "I wish that I could have given Yuji more time in the car before the start of the season, but with the team being put together so rapidly we were unable to allow him the proper testing that he should have experienced." |
