The former Formula 1 champion, Mario Andretti, hopes to see his grandson Marco in the premier category of motorsport one day.
The young driver took advantage of a few days of testing in Spain with Honda and could be a serious candidate to join the line-up of the new USF1 team.
Speaking about the possibilities for his grandson, Mario Andretti said: « I would simply like him to love it. It could rejuvenate me. The love of my life is and always will be Formula 1. »
« In fact, I know that Marco hasn’t expressed himself enough on this subject. He simply wants the results to speak for themselves before saying anything. But every time I mention this possibility, I would give everything for it to come true. »
« I said it before and I would say it again, if I had to ‘design’ a Formula 1 driver, it would be Marco. He learns quickly. He is very sharp-minded. He is determined to move towards F1, but he also wants to excel in this category, » continued Andretti.
« We will see what the future holds for him. For the moment, he needs to achieve good results where he is currently with his father in IndyCar, and then we will see where that leads him. » concluded the former world champion.
