    Adrian Sutil becomes Williams Formula 1 reserve driver

    By Jonathan Noble Thursday, March 26th 2015, 10:09 GMT

    Adrian Sutil

    Williams has appointed Adrian Sutil as its reserve Formula 1 driver for 2015.

    The German has been out of work since being dropped by Sauber at the end of last season.

    In the wake of Valtteri Bottas's absence from the Australian Grand Prix, there was uncertainty about who Williams would use in the event of one of its regulars being unable to race.

    It has Susie Wolff on its books as a test driver and GP3 champion Alex Lynn as a development driver, but neither was in an official 'reserve' role.

    Tazio will be happy I guess. Slash is back in business, sort of.

    Other than that - Sutil is a decent and a pretty recent F1 driver, so a solid addition to anyone's reserve list. I just hope Williams hasn't done what Sauber did with contracts, so later on nobody knows, who should drive!

    Don't think for a second that The Fighting Anglo Mafia wasn't the force behind this move.

    Best available man for the job. Wolff and Lynn are not race ready, so it is an obvious choice.
