Formula 1: Felipe Drugovich to race in Bahrain GP if Lance Stroll not fit

The Hindu  

Brazilian Felipe Drugovich will make his Formula One race debut in next weekend’s Bahrain season-opener if Lance Stroll cannot return in time from a cycling injury, Aston Martin said on Sunday. Stroll missed the three-day pre-season test from Thursday to Saturday at Bahrain’s Sakhir circuit with reserve driver Drugovich doing 117 laps as a stand-in alongside double world champion Alonso. The team’s confirmation that reigning Formula Two champion Drugovich, 22, would race if Stroll cannot also addressed speculation that four-times world champion Sebastian Vettel could make a surprise comeback. Aston Martin started last season with a stand-in driver for the first two races in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia after Vettel tested positive for COVID-19.
