Injured Red Bull test driver Michael Ammermuller will nonetheless return to the wheel of an F1 single seater next weekend, according to reports.
The 21-year-old German is having to sit out this weekend’s GP2 race with a wrist injury, but the publication ‘Focus’ insists that Ammermuller will demonstrate the Red Bull car at Germany’s EuroSpeedway Lausitz for the DTM round next weekend.
It is expected that he will then be fit to resume his racing commitments for the ART team in Monaco later this month, including being Red Bull’s official ‘reserve’ F1 pilot.
Ammermuller’s father, meanwhile, is quoted as saying that his son’s injury will be examined in Austria next week, after they advised him to rest his wrist for now.
