The 27-year-old driver, who has also participated in rounds of the Super GT Series in Japan, will be on track Wednesday and Thursday with the RA107, the 2007 car.<\/p>\n
The test is a reward for his participation in the \u00ab Formula Dream \u00bb project. A project aimed at supporting young drivers in their career aspirations.<\/p>\n
\u00ab This is my second chance to drive a Formula 1 car, and I’m really looking forward to it. I hope to do my best and use all my racing experience in Japan to deliver a nice performance, \u00bb said Kogure.<\/p>\n
\u00ab I expect to learn a lot during this experience, particularly from working alongside an F1 team that features two of the best drivers in the world. \u00bb<\/p>\n
\u00ab I would like to say a big thank you to the Honda Racing F1 Team and the team’s ‘Formula Dream’ project for giving me this opportunity, \u00bb he added.<\/p>\n
The RA108, Honda’s new car, will make its debut a little later in the week before its launch on Tuesday, January 29.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
