A part of my role is communicating with the driver while they are out on track – whether that be during testing or at a race. An element we have to ensure is working well for testing is our relationship with and training of the driver. During testing we are exploring key areas of the Jaguar I-TYPE 4 and need to be able to relay and understand their feedback. With Mitch being a long-standing driver for Panasonic Jaguar Racing– we have worked together for many seasons at Jaguar - he has completed a lot of testing with new features and is able to understand it not only from the drivers point of view, but also the technical side.

JOSEP ROCAPANASONIC JAGUAR #racing RACE ENGINEER FOR MITCH EVANS

A great skill to have in a #racing driver is the ability to be able to differentiate between the priorities during a private test versus a race weekend. To be able to understand the importance of testing and provide the engineers with detailed feedback at a test is key. During the development process their role is significant in deciding what data or part to review first.
