Dave Scott signed for Lotus as a test driver in October, 1981. He certainly tested Formula One cars, mainly at Hethel, and covered around 1,000 miles.

He tested in Misano too, in november 2 and 3, 1982.

Test Drivers
Formula One Test Drivers Archive

This is an attempt at archiving all instances of a driver testing a contemporary Formula One car. It includes official test drivers, Friday test drivers, one-off test drivers, and so on. It does not include instances of a regular driver testing during the off-season. Descriptions of the tests will appear in the future. Please post any missing testers in the Test Drivers thread in GF1’s Nostalgia Forum

Thanks in particular to the members of TBK/TBK Light for their assistance in posting pictures of many of the tests. Credit also to 8W’s test driver archive.

[sterling49]

rpereira, you obviously have done lots of research on this subject, I see JYS crops up in Benetton, Brabham, March, Ligier, Lotus, Mclaren and Williams. I would be interested to hear more on this, as I do not recall him doing so at the time. Wee Jackie had lots of input in modern Fords

Wasn't this when Jackie did a test drive in various F1 cars for a TV program?
"Jackie Stewart's World of Speed" or something similar?

Yep, it was. A decade earlier JYS also tested many F1 cars for Autocar magazine. Some pictures and information here:

8W Nostalgia Christmas Quiz (post #17, photo #16)
Jackie Stewart's Tests (there are many other F1 testing pictures in the thread)

[mpep82]

David Hallyday (Le Mans 10-07-2005), Max Gazze (Misano 19-07-2006), Jonathan Cochet (many times in 2006, 2007 and 2008) have done demonstrations in World Series meetings

Dani Sordo was in the same test as Sebastien Loeb with Renault in 2007 (Paul Ricard 05-12-2007)

[Ross Stonefeld]

Some of these 'tests' are really pushing it.

I think these "track tests" are somewhat different to my understanding of someone in the role of an official team "test driver".

[rpereira]

I agree with you sterling49 but it's very nice to see photos of those tests and know that they happened.

[Kiirava]

Hello rpereira & co

I have previously asked for proof of J.J.Lehto testing for Ferrari in 1992, but received none.
Then some contributions to the "Test" driver list:
Keke Rosberg tested a Kojima KE009 at Fuji in 1977
J.J.Lehto had test drives with Patreses Benetton B193 at Estoril late 1993 before he was on contract for the 1994 season.
Mika Salo had similar tests with the Tyrell 022 late 1994 before he was employed for 1995.
Mika Salo also tested in the Arrows A20 early 1999 before he was dropped for Tagaki.Doubtful if this qualifies for the Official Test Driver list.
Mika Häkkinen did som laps in Singapore 2008 with McLaren MP4/22. This was a Johnny Walker promo!

Another rare picture from Fuji Speedway:



This is a demo run in Jody Schecter's Wolf WR3 which should took place in the morning before the race.

[Ross Stonefeld]

That's Keke?

[Kiirava]

[B]CHEERIO Keke...... but where is the fag!!!!

Another tester: Finnish F3/GP2 junior star Mika Mäki claims he has had a couple of shakedown laps with Red Bull 2008, i don't know if he is just bragging.
