Niverville native, David Richert, has been invited to test for Team Torino Motorsport, a race team based out of Turin, Italy. Richert will be driving the newly updated Formula Renault 2.0 race car around the Franciacorta International Circuit, one hour east of Milan, in mid-October.
David Richert will be driving the newly updated Formula Renault 2.0 race car.
Back in 2011, Richert completed 4 successful races with Team Torino in the old Renault chassis before moving on to do a Formula 3 test at the famous race circuit in Imola with another team. After spending the last year grinding it out in boardrooms and gyms, Richert is looking forward to this opportunity. “It’s been a lot of hard work to earn this test session so I’m excited for the chance to climb back into a race car, continue learning, and prove what I can do.”
Marco Braghero, Team Manager at Team Torino, is also looking for positive results from the test. “We’ve been working on this for a while so it will be great to see how David performs in the new Renault 2.0 car and, if all goes well, we look forward to discussing opportunities for the 2014 race season.”
David Richert will also be hosting the advance screening of Ron Howard’s new film, RUSH, Wednesday night (Sept 25th) at Empire Theatres Grant Park and will then be at Speedworld Indoor Kart Track for the RUSH Challenge on Thursday (Sept 26th) from 5pm-7pm.
