The Brazilian had been the victim ofa fracture of both legs in the Ardennes. In intensive rehabilitation for two months, the 8 Formula V3.5 2017 champion took part in a day of private testing with his Dale Coyne Racing team in mid-July. “It was a huge relief, these few laps showed that I was capable of making my return to racing. I feel good, comfortable in the car. »
It will not be an easy weekend for the grandson of the double world champion of Formula 1 Emerson Fittipaldi. “I've never raced at Mid-Ohio, and this will be my first IndyCar meeting on a road course. It’s a technical route that I like. Qualifying will be important because there are not many places to overtake. I can't wait to come back! »
