Jake Legge is a test driver for Alpha Racing Team (ART). He joined the team after Season 6, where he was a rookie test driver with Tafuro GP.
Season 6
Jake kept a fair account of himself in his first season, acting as the backup to lead test driver Joseph Gilson. He finished two places below him in the tester standings, finishing 14th.
Tafuro GP Controversy
After his first season, Jake appeared to be retained for S7, with Ricardo van Smirren to act as the other test driver. However, team boss Paolo Tafuro (Matteo Scala, as he later became known) wished to test for his own team, and this ended up in both contracted testers leaving. Juliano Muller later took the second seat.
Season 7
In light of the aforementioned scandal, a few teams were interested in taking up Jake's services to fill a test slot. He accepted an offer from ART, partnering team boss Stefan van Renselaar. The first few races were marred with bad luck; in the first feature race in Australia, he qualified 7th and ran as high as 4th before retiring due to an unspecified mechanical fault. He managed to run as high as 2nd at Surfers Paradise before hitting a wall, taking out former teammate Joseph Gilson in the ensuing carnage.
Personal Life
Jake has developed a reputation in the paddock as a joker. He once turned up to a press conference wearing a 'Dyslexics are Teople Poo' t-shirt; this got complaints from the National Dyslexic Association (DNA). He also threw a bunga-bunga party in the ART motorhome and pool. This resulted in a $15,000 cleaning bill. For one weekend, he swapped places with the Manchester City winger Adam Johnson which saw him line up on the left wing against West Ham United. Johnson therefore drove the Tafuro car to a respectable 14th place. Jake managed to score a goal. This was done without any alarm because they look so similar.
