As far as I know this year he tested for Ferrari F1 only once,true that now Massa is leaving so there is an empty test seat at Ferrari but McNish also runs for it.If Burti can't secure that seat and HHF can't secure any F1 seat then they are quite likely to be team-mates in DTM driving Opel Astras for Team Holzer.

Yea, his F1 hopes were pretty much finished off by a combination of the Spa crash and Prost folding. It's a shame really, I think he had some potential.

Yeah, he was one of Jags first victims too wasnt he.
Had some spectacular accidents in his short career, most through no fault of his own. |

As this thread is about Burti, I will refrain the impetus of speaking about Ricardo Zonta (whom I rate very highly...).
Indeed, Burti is going to test a DTM Astra next month. It seems that he will not keep his testing role at Ferrari in 2004, and I don't see him racing in Brazil now (he has a too high salary to do that). There has been gossips here in the United States that both Burti and Zonta will test Fittipaldi-Dingman Racing (the CART team) during the off-season. Actually the list of Brazilians aiming for the (still to be confirmed) second Fittipaldi-Dingman car does not getting longer: Zonta, Burti, Roberto Moreno, Enrique Bernoldi, Ricardo Sperafico, João Paulo de Oliveira, Ricardo MaurÃ*cio, Hoover Orsi... Nevertheless, I still believe FDR will set for a non-Brazuca! Last edited by Muzza; 25 Oct 2003 at 22:26. |

Does he stand even the slightest chance of getting back into Formula 1?

Sadly, Fiona, I concur with you - it is quite unlikely that Zonta will ever get a racing Formula 1 seat again.

He shoved Marc Hynes into the pitwall at the start of the F3 race. Probably cost him the Championship...

He said this weekend - he was participating in a marathon - that he's looking for a test drive role in F1 or a seat in a US series.
