Valsecchi: “I don't know if I deserve a place in F1”

In recent months there has often been talk of a future in Lotus of the tester David Valsecchi as constituent of Grosjean, known more for blunders than results. However, when questioned on the matter by Autosport on the sidelines of the test held at Silverstone, the driver from Erba appeared somewhat doubtful.

“Racing in F1 today is not at all easy because there are so many talents – his thoughts – Personally I see it as tough, but obviously I will do my best to arouse interest in myself, even if I would however need a bit of luck given that in the role I play it is difficult to show my value. Today I can't say if I deserve to be promoted to starter in this series, but last year I did, when I raced in GP2 I felt I was worthy."
