Because F1 teams don't want to waste time having the likes of Stroll write off million dollar cars for no discernable benefit. Our Nando is hardly a rookie in the conventional sense of the word.

I still don't get why the F1 tests aren't broadcast. Really dumb.

Indy is a fundamentally unique track that most rookies have never seen before.

I meant so they could get the full super licence, send them out in this year's car and see if they can do basic poo poo like stick to a delta and not bin the car going in a straight line.

If the superlicence points requirement doesn't solve this, very little will.

Off hand: Prost, Andretti, Nando, Hamilton, Vettel, Rosberg (both), Kimi, Stewart. Probably missing a bunch.
