Roberto Merhi

Roberto Merhi made it to Formula 1 with Manor Marussia in 2015, becoming the last Spaniard (before Carlos Sainz's full breakthrough) to race in Formula 1. Although the Manor car was firmly at the back of the grid, Merhi competed professionally and gained important experience. Previously, he had a strong junior career in GP2 and Formula Renault 3.5, where his speed was evident, and his F1 appearances demonstrated the depth of Spanish talent in the sport.
