Di Resta gets F1 trial

Scottish driver Paul di Resta has been handed a trial with Formula One team Force India.

The 23-year-old, who is currently with the F1 outfit’s engine partners Mercedes in the German Touring Car Championship, could get a reserve or test position next season if he impresses in Jerez next month.

American IndyLights champion John Hildebrand, 21, will also take part in the tests from December 1-3.

Di Resta is the cousin of IndyCar champion Dario Franchitti and has tested twice for McLaren.
