Pietro Fittipaldi, the grandson of two-times Formula 1 world champion Emerson Fittipaldi, has joined Haas as a test driver.
Fittipaldi won the Formula V8 3.5 championship in its final year before moving into IndyCar this season.
Haas team principal Guenther Steiner said Fittipaldi “brings a championship-winning pedigree from his junior open-wheel career and more recently he has acquitted himself well running in the IndyCar series.”
Fittipaldi thanked Gene Haas and Guenther Steiner for giving him the opportunity.
Pietro Fittipaldi: “I’m looking forward to getting behind the wheel of the VF-18 in Abu Dhabi.”
