Jessica Hawkins' Aston Martin test lap times are a mystery to most, but not to Nico Rosberg...
While 2016 World Champion Nico Rosberg refrained from revealing the outright lap times of Jessica Hawkins in her Aston Martin test, he said she was “rapid” compared to their test driver Felipe Drugovich.
Aston Martin’s driver ambassador pumped in 26 laps at the wheel, and was left with “no doubt” that Formula 1 will have a female racing driver again at some stage after that outing.The obvious question then was, just how competitive were Hawkins’ lap times in the AMR21? It has been quite the closely-guarded secret, but Sky F1 pundit Rosberg said he had got his hands on the exact times she delivered.
Hawkins has a varied CV on the racing scene, having competed in categories such as W Series and the British Touring Car Championship, though with this Aston Martin test having seemingly gone so well, she was asked what the next step is from here.
