This will be cool if he can make it.

LONDON - He is hoping to become the first Singaporean to drive in Formula 1, and earlier this week, Andrew Tang underwent a battery of rigorous bio-dynamic tests with the McLaren team at their Woking base in England.

The 17-year-old was evaluated for his physical and mental attributes to see if he has what it takes to cut it in the highest echelon of motorsports.

Overseeing the process was Dr Aki Hintsa, McLaren's team physician from Finland, who had previously put 2008 world champion Lewis Hamilton through the same regimen.

Soon, Andrew will have a 60-page document containing the results of the Finn's assessment and what he must do to develop physically and mentally.

Would be good if he gets through, but there are a lot just like him out there doing the same testing etc. Sounds like he has good backing though, so we'll have to look out for him in a few years.
