Bruno Senna - Is he any good?

Petroltorque
in ForzaMinardi.com Forum
Bearing in mind he'd only need to be half as good as his illustrius uncle to be outstanding.
I see he's turmed down a test with STR. So That team has failed to re-establish Minardi's reputation as a place for young drivers.
Seems like Red Bull is purel a marketing machine after all.

    GCM, IMHO, was the reason people came to Minardi. It was not necessarilly the Team but GCM AND the Team that made the difference for the young driver.

    I saw him race in 3 F3 support races at the OZGP this year. He raced in both wet and dry conditions, with a team he has never raced for, in a car he had never raced, and won all three. Is he any good? yes! He probably needs a year of F1 testing prior, but I think the boy has potential for sure.

    Yes, he's back in Brit F3 this year and doing well. He hasn't been racing very long.

    So to upsum its nature as opposed to nurture.

    And money ...

    and name ...
  • minardirule
    He does seem to be performing well and as viges has pointed out he hasn't had much experience as all his carting etc was put on a big hold after Imola. Name and money do help and i think his sister runs the money side of things

    Having watched his first two outings (Oulton Park?) two easy victorys. He looks the class act of the field.

    He'll have a hard time. People will compare him to his uncle, no matter what.
