STR Red Bull's Brook Johnston May Not Be F1 Ready?

**danger zone** · 2nd December 2008, 01:08

Due to a practice crash in Italy for this summer's Formula BMW International series, American driver Brook Johnston was recently chosen to do some testing for Formula One's development program at Red Bull and seems as if it might not come true. Johnston has been out of the racing scene at seasons end, taking care of the medical issues, however they have yet to release whether or not Johnston is able to race and test in the coming months. Scheduled to be testing in December at STR's practice track, Johnston was the new American hopeful for Red Bull since the young Scott Speed. Injury driven, Brook looks as if he has fallen off the grid temporarily. We have seen this before from the young American, and with great surprise he continues to fight and win races. Could this be the end of Brook Johnston's successful run? Or is Johnston merely taking a short vacation after his championship win?
