Formerly Sauber, the Swiss team offered the young Colombian driver her first runs in Formula 1 on the Fiorano track in 2018. Calderon has been linked to the Hinwil-based structure since 2017, where she served as a development driver.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, a permanent position is not currently in the cards for the young woman. Indeed, if Tatiana fails to assert herself in Formula 2 where she will race for BWT Arden, the next seat could go to Mick Schumacher, who is also in F2 with Prema and a member of Ferrari’s young driver program. The close collaboration between the Italian team and Alfa Romeo Racing could benefit the German F3 champion.<\/p>\n
The main person involved is delighted about the continuation of this collaboration: \u00ab They gave me my first chance to drive a Formula 1 car and I love being part of the team. I hope we can accomplish great things together in the near future. I want to thank Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Vasseur and Alfa Romeo Racing for believing in me and continuing this adventure together.\u00bb<\/p>\n
