According to sources in the Silverstone paddock on Thursday evening, Hispania Racing test and reserve driver Sakon Yamamoto is set to replace regular racer Bruno Senna for this weekend’s British Grand Prix.Yamamoto first joined a Formula 1 event as a third driver for Jordan at the 2005 Japanese Grand Prix before switching to Super Aguri and competing in seven races the following year.
In 2007 came a move to Spyker and the subbing of The Netherlands’ Christijan Albers from the Hungarian Grand Prix onwards.
Having joined HRT earlier in 2010, the Aichi man replaced Senna in Friday’s first practice session in Istanbul.
