This wasn’t the younger System 2 driver’s first speeding-related controversy. Cordeel was beforehand accused of driving at greater than 300 km/h (186 mph) in an Audi in one other video that was posted on-line. In that case, although, he denied being the one behind the wheel.

The 20-year-old driver not too long ago signed for his second season with the Virtuosi racing staff, alongside Australia’s Jack Doohan, who’s a member of the Alpine Academy and has examined the French racing staff’s System 1 automobile on a number of events.

Chatting with Motorsport, System 2 CEO Bruno Michel stated that the problem was worthy of investigation, although he had not been conscious of the state of affairs earlier than being requested about it.

“That is in all probability one thing that must be the topic of discussions with the FIA to see the best way to handle this and if one thing particular is required,” stated Michel. “We are able to’t ignore this reality, that’s for sure.”
