Bottas, White Red Bull’s and Lausitzring: 10 Questions to a Racing Driver with Zach David



Another '10 Questions'! This time my guest is Filipino driver Zach David! The teenager made his single seater debut in 2022 as he progressed from karting.


Zach raced in one round of ADAC F4 at the Lausitzring, impressing as he managed a best of 5th, finishing all 3 races in the points for US Racing. He also featured in Italian F4 with US, showing a best finish of 7th at Monza.


In karting, Zach represented the Sauber Karting Team. Onto his answers!


1. Hairpins or chicanes? Chicanes because of the high speed nature of the corner, and it feels more exciting to drive through.


2. Long straights or slow corners? Slow corners because at least you're doing something, rather than just doing nothing on a straight.


3. Understeer or oversteer? Oversteer, because in my opinion it is easier to control, and I usually like to have a bit more oversteer than understeer anyway.


4. Fast circuits or technical circuits? Fast circuits because it feels more fun to drive on because it flows to each corner, and being on a higher speed is always better in my opinion.


5. Wet races or wet/dry races? Wet/Dry races because of the variability, and if you get the line/driving right, then you have a much bigger advantage than normal.


6. What's your favourite circuit youve raced on? I've only raced in Lausitzring in F4, so yeah, Lausitzring.

7. Favourite you've NOT raced? A circuit I want to race on is Spa, just the layout and the history behind it is good.

📸 Ever popular Spa.


8. Your favourite F1 livery ever? A livery I really liked was the White Red Bull in Turkey.

9. Your favourite helmet design ever! I like mine, but I liked Bottas' Miami helmet this year.

10. who is the best driver you've raced against? I haven't raced against a lot in F4, But Barnard is strong when I raced against him, and in karts, Camara was really strong when I raced him.

Thanks Zach for the chat! I hope we can speak again sometime soon!
