“Hi everyone, it’s Robert.,” he said in a social media video. “I’m here in Hinwil, a kind of comeback home where I started my career in Formula 1 in 2006.
“It’s very nice to be back in this environment, I have seen many people which I worked with in the past. I just did the seat fit in the new car, so I’m looking forward not only to drive the car, but also to work with the team.”
