Sergio Sette Camara joins McLaren as test driver

Brazilian Formula 2 driver Sergio Sette Camara has joined McLaren as a test and development driver.

Sette Camara has been the F2 teammate of McLaren's current test driver Lando Norris this season and will take over Norris' role when the British driver is promoted to a race seat alongside Carlos Sainz next year. In his new position, the Brazilian will provide support to the team's racing programme and conduct simulator work at the team's factory in Woking.

Sette Camara, 20, is currently sixth in the F2 drivers' championship with just the season finale in Abu Dhabi remaining.
