Brendon Hartley testing for RBR

Has his first ever test in an F1 car on Thursday. Think hes only doing straight line testing and learning how to do burn outs so they can take the car to Rio for a PR demonstration. Been quite a while since a kiwi has been in an F1 car and I went to school with his older brother is a shame he didn't get his break. Is only a test but pretty excited for him.
He won the Formula 2.0 Renault Euro-Cup last year, not sure what hes planning this year but hes a good chance of being in F1 at some stage.

I don't know much about him but good to see another Kiwi coming up.
How did the test go?
Was he in a standard RB liveried car in FR last year?
