   Good luck with that. The teams don’t even like giving the car to their drivers, I doubt they’d give it to some Scottish lass.

   Have A LOT of Money.

   A.

   LOT.

   $30 000 000 would be a start.

   Or you can search the internet for driving schools that rent them.

   Or you can search the internet for cars for sale. If the asker is asking for less than ~200K, then there is something WRONG with the car.

   Make sure spares are available.

   Now that I’ve noticed where you are from, you should go to Knockhill circuit, just outside of Edinburgh, and get them to take you out in their 2-seater F3000 car. It’s fun, I’ve tried. In the wet, too

   there used to be a driving experience in england at one of the tracks there (southern england) that cost 1,000 quid. you started the day in a formula ford, gradually working thru the classes until yr last car of the day was a mid 90’s jag f1 which you got 4 hot laps in. speed limited of course. you couldn’t drive one if it wasn’t, you’d end up in the grass. they are mega mega hard to drive.

   What you do is you get a job at the FIA, then go to some charity event where one of the teams is doing a display, and tell them you need to “just test the car” … just don’t crash it.

   I think Renault F1’s looking for a demo driver.

   BMW F1 team will teach you to drive an F1 car but for that you have to be rich and should have already taken part in motor sport races.
