Arvid Lindblad, the young British driver of just 18 years, has shared that he feels ready to face his driving test after completing his first class. He is currently part of the Racing Bulls team in his debut season in Formula 1.
In a recent interview with _beIN Sports_, Lindblad expressed his confidence in passing the driving test, stating that he does not need more classes. “I just need to be careful with the blind spots,” said the driver, known for his quick learning.
His instructor acknowledged his skill behind the wheel, with few critiques and advising him to continue watching the blind spots. Lindblad noted that the experience of driving a conventional car is curiously different for him, admitting that speed limits feel unusual and that it is sometimes difficult to maintain 30 km/h.
Despite his efforts to obtain the license, Lindblad has a noteworthy start to his F1 career, currently sitting in 11th place in the drivers’ championship with a total of 20 points. His best result so far has been an eighth place at the Australian GP, along with two seventh places in Monaco and the British GP.
The driver is now focusing on the Belgian GP, which will take place at Spa-Francorchamps on July 19th. Lindblad has high expectations for this event and hopes to continue progressing in the championship.
