Like Robert Kubica, Alx Danielsson, Alvaro Parente and Giedo Van der Garde before him, the 2009 Formula Champion Renault 3.5 Series will benefit from a test with the Renault team F1. The Belgian driver, who won the Championship at the World Series by Renault meeting at the Nürburgring, will be keen to show himself in the R29 of Fernando Alonso et Romain Grosjean.

« This will be a big first for me » explains the Belgian pilot. “ It is both a childhood dream and the goal that all pilots set for themselves. Driving the Renault F1 R29 is a form of achievement for me. »

Before getting into the seat of the car struck with the diamond, Bertrand Baguette is currently carrying out specific physical training. “ The most important thing for me is not so much to achieve a time », continues the native of Verviers. “ The goal of this day will be to work well with the team and seriously carry out the program that Renault F1 Team will define. More than my peak speed, it is my ability to analyze the behavior of the car and the communication I will have with the members of the team that will be judged. I can not wait to be there ! he concludes.

While the teams are currently shopping for next season, the Belgian driver will try to get noticed to land a seat for 2010.
