B history have been As intriguingly Amer latins .w1 Mcewien the in Al �i.,r,  that has dominated International can fans As one that took place last tuesday through thursday in Estoril Portugal. That s because for the first Lime since 1981, a Driver named Andretti was sitting in a formula one car. This time it was Michael and not his lather Mario the former world Champion who was doing the driving. He was in a Mclaren for the first session under his 199f contract As a test  the British team. Andretti who is 28 and lives of the same Street a Victory Lane a in Naz Areth pa., As his father will still be a teammate with his dad on the Newman but the team grand prix racing for several years could be Michael Andretti s Chance to get the formula one ride he wants. A a i m sort of evaluating formula one and they re evaluating me a Andretti said by Telephone last thursday from the grand prix circuit in Estoril. So far there Hasni to been much to base an evaluation on. Wet weather and a Gearbox that caked Oil limited Andretti to a handful of fast laps the first two Davs and he was Able to run Only 12 hot laps on thursday a test a i was Able to get Down to u 2u.fl, which is not bad i guess considering a that i had never Soe Tihe car or the track Quot Andretti said about a single Lap time of 1 minute 20 seconds. On the 2.703-mile Estoril circuit a race Lap of 1 18 is considered rather smart. Andretti Felt Good about his 1 20 Lap time because Gerhard Berger of Austria one of the two regular Mclaren Drivers and. Alain Prost of France the former world Champion who drives a Ferrari were in the same Range when running stints _ that simulated race length distances. But there were too Many variables even beyond Andretti a limited track time to draw and solid conclusions. 7 amp Berger for example used a v-j2 Honda engine while Andretti had a v-1u. Andretti was Able to talk about differences in the feel of a formula one car and indy car. A the main difference is the ride of the car is much harsher a he said referring to the Mclaren. A a it a a very hard ride because its similar to a go Kart not much suspension movement a. That s because the underside of a formula one car is Flat unlike an indy car which has a Bottom that is shaped to create a vacuum beneath the car for better Road holding. With its hat underside a formula one car cannot he allowed to Bounce up and Down As much lest the aerodynamics be upset
