Lotus Renault F1 test driver Bruno Senna took us for a spin up Lord March’s front drive at the recent 2011 Goodwood Festival of Speed preview day. Watch the video of Ayrton Senna’s nephew driving Tim Pollard in a Lotus Evora S in our video player above.
It’s a rough ‘n’ ready clip, so we apologise that we lopped off the top of Pollard’s head, but that serves him right for being a lanky so-and-so squashed in the supercharged Evora. Please note the Goodwood preview run isn’t up the full length of the hill, as they only have hay bales stacked up to just past Goodwood House, so Senna eases off soon after. We still hit 110mph, mind you.
You’ll see Senna Jnr talking about the new 2011 F1 season, explain why he’ll drive to some races in an Evora S from Monaco, Lord March stepping in for a chat, and scribbler Tim Pollard looking just a little bit scared. Enjoy!
