HEADLESS Cross ace Stefan Hodgetts has set his sights on a Formula 1 test drive this time next year.
After seeing the top drivers in this season's F3 series offered drives with F1 giants, Hodgetts wants to follow in their footsteps next season.
A lack of sponsorship has seen the talented young driver endure two patchy seasons in which he has been unable to put together a concerted challenge.
The move into F3 last season was again dogged by financial concerns but Hodgetts has gone a long way to solving that concern by securing what he describes as a 'substantial' three year sponsorship deal.
The F3 hope will be sponsored by the Seriously Hard Cheddar brand of cheese.
Hodgetts is confident of a top five finish in next year's F3 series and has already been offered a regular drive with his Motaworld team but is considering his options after talks with other teams.
