Only an instagram post, and I don't know for sure it's a verified account, but if legit then Timo has had a seat fitting for an F1 team... Best bets?

Replacement for Stroll/Palmer, or extra insurance should Alonso decide his car isn't worth £30M/year to suffer?

He's not got a superlicense.

Don't buy it. If you wanted an ex-f1 guy it'd be buemi.

It doesn't look like a current F1 car he's sat in. Maybe a goodwood spot or some other promo work?

That picture has no relevance to this story - he is wearing his BMW DTM race suit there.

JolyOff? Sure Glock isn't the fastest, but he was never a consistent crasher either.

No you'd put JEV in the car IMO.

Buemi is doing solid job for Toyota, and is dominating bormula E. I also rated him in the torso Rossi, was clearly fantasy f1 pick of the season behind rosberg (not that fantasy f1 is definitive!)

TV feature in a simulator, or an older car on track.

Looks like a simulator to me too, similar to this - http://www.bernax.com/rent-a-race-simulator/ there are many around though. F1 team's own, commercial or fun.

Not sure what the blue pipes are, is that a new sensory force feedback system maybe?

Buemi is a good driver, of that there is no doubt, but I would still have JEV over him. I mean what must that nose do for the CoG wink
