Sato tests at Interlagos
Takuma Sato has been busy lapping Brazil's Interlagos circuit in a Formula 3 car in readiness for his first appearance at the circuit in 2002 as a Formula 1 driver.
The Jordan youngster borrowed a Formula 3 car from local team Cesario Formula and completed 86 laps without incident, lapping a second off the pace of local F3 experts.
