Indian Driver Kush Maini Completes Second F1 Testing Session With Alpine

India's only Formula 2 driver Kush Maini conducted a series of tests in Alpine's Formula One car as the Monza race weekend approaches. The Alpine F1 team decided to stop at Imola before going to Monza to conduct a series of tests with their young drivers. The tests were successfully completed by Maini and other Alpine young driver Jack Doohan who was recently promoted to F1 from next season onwards. Kush Maini drove the Alpine A522 around the beautiful Imola circuit which is rich in culture and history. 

This was the second time this year that Kush Maini tested for a Formula One car with Alpine. The first instance came at the Red Bull Ring in Austria. 

Crucial Timing For F1 Tests For Maini 

The Formula One tests for Kush Maini come at a very crucial timing as the spot for a reserve driver in the Alpine Formula One team just opened up with the promotion of Jack Doohan from 2025 onwards. Kush Maini completed around 99 laps in the F1 car which amounts to around 500km on the circuit.
