Jaime Alguersuari: “F1 should be difficult to drive. »

Between 2009 and 2011, the Spanish Jaime Alguersuari evolved within the training Toro Rosso. Moved from FR 3.5 to F1, the now pilot Virgin in Formula E, believes that the transition to the premier discipline is very different from what he has known.

Alguersuari also indicated his admiration for the new Formula E. “It’s a sport, more sport than business. I am convinced that this series has a real long-term future. »
