Susie Wolff aiming for F1 superlicence after FW35 test | 2013 F1 season

Susie Wolff says her next objective is to get an F1 superlicence after being entrusted with the first run in the Williams FW35.

Wolff was the first person to drive the team's new car in a straight-line aerodynamic test at Idiada last week.

She will do further aerodynamic tests in the car as she aims to increase her F1 mileage. 'A superlicence is the next thing on the to-do list,' she told media in Barcelona.

Wolff said she will not be participating in Friday practice sessions this year. She is looking to race elsewhere after calling time on her DTM career.

'I stopped DTM because for me I had done seven years in DTM and felt there was nothing left more to achieve there,' she said. 'I had tried my best, come to the best point I could, and there was no real way of moving forward there.'

'And when I made that decision it wasn't consciously because I wanted to do more at Williams, I'd made that decision already in May of last year. It just so happened that I then got the opportunity for a Formula One test in October.

'This went well and I then got asked by Mike [Coughlan] to increase my role in the team and because I didn't have a race programme like DTM which is quite full-on, I was able to dedicate a lot more of my time to working in the team and that's what happened.

'It's been a very natural progression. But my new year's resolution was to stand on a podium again so I'm not done with racing yet. I think I'll look into doing some GT races or so, just because I enjoy racing so much.'

But she ruled out an appearance at the Le Mans 24 Hours: 'Unfortunately my husband has forbidden me from ever doing Le Mans, so Le Mans is off the programme!

'But, yes, Spa 24 Hours or some of the big highlight races would be really good and challenging to do.'

Toto 'not an enemy of the team'

Wolff's husband Toto left Williams to become the executive director at Mercedes' Formula One team last month. 'It's not that he's an enemy of the team any more, he's still a friend of the team,' said his wife.

'But obviously he has a big job to do at Mercedes. I'm definitely seeing much less of him these days, he must have a lot of work on his plate.

'Of course we're all competitive people and one hundred percent there's going to be some instances this year where one is happy on a Sunday night and one is maybe not so happy.

'But there was never any question of my role at Williams coming into doubt, I'm very much a proud member of the team, there was anyway a contract in place and there was never any discussions.'

'We still support each other and maybe just talk a little bit less about Formula One at home,' she added. 'I remember when I came back from a day in the factory and he said 'how was your day?' And I said' 'my day was fine'. No need to say any more!'
