Nick Cassidy felt it was a “big honour” to test for CGRTeams, and is keeping his options open for 2024 amid interest in IndyCar Here's what he said ⬇️
Cassidy, fresh off a runner-up finish for Envision Racing in last weekend’s Formula E round in Hyderabad, tested the Honda-powered Ganassi car of 2021 IndyCar championDriving the sole Honda-powered car in action in the eight-car test, the 28-year-old New Zealander turned 156 laps of the 1.7-mile short course, and finished the day 0.636s off top spot but within 0.4s of the second place car.
Cassidy said the focus of this Sebring outing was running through test items for Ganassi, and had to mould his driving style around the inherent handling traits of an IndyCar rather than tweaking the car to suit him. "I tried my best to do that for them, and provide the best feedback I could, and more stick to their plan than change anything for myself. And actually, I think that was good for me.”“Sebring has got a couple of funky little corners, and bumps that were just new for me, because our styles of circuits are very different. The car itself is something I felt very comfortable with.”
“If I’m going to be here, I’m going to be committed; the Indy 500 is something that everyone should dream to win. It’s one of the biggest races in the world. "I was with TOM’s for six years, I’m in my third year with Envision in Formula E, so I want my next contract to be home for a long time in terms of team and championship.
