Steiner wants to help talents: ''That would be possible, but it's up to Ferrari''

In Formula 2 there is a whole host of talent ready to make the step to Formula 1 and especially the Ferrari juniors are pushing hard. Günther Steiner is open to giving those drivers a chance to take a test.
With Callum Ilott, Mick Schumacher and Robert Shwartzman, Ferrari has three championship candidates driving around in Formula 2. Schumacher seems destined for a place in F1 and is heavily linked to the seat at Alfa Romeo. For Ilott and Shwartzman it is a lot harder, despite good performances in the division.
Will talents be tested at Haas?
With Kimi Raikkonen, Antonio Giovinazzi, Romain Grosjean, and Kevin Magnussen as current drivers, there are already four drivers on the market for the seats at Alfa Romeo and Haas and with the freed Sergio Perez and of course Nico Hulkenberg, the rear teams suddenly have a lot of choice.
''That would certainly be possible. That's more up to Ferrari, but if they ask for our help, we can certainly help them. They helped us a lot during the coronavirus, so that's how we can help each other," said Steiner to Formula1.com about a possible test of one of the Ferrari talents in his car.
