	Alexander Wurz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Alexander Wurz was born on 15 February 1974 at Waidhofen/Thaya in Lower Austria as the second son of former rallycross ace Franz Wurz (European Rallycross Champion 1974, 1976 and 1982).
		In April 2005, with Juan Pablo Montoya injured, Wurz drove for McLaren in the 2005 San Marino Grand Prix, finishing fourth in the race, but taking third place after both BAR-Honda drivers were disqualified.
		Alexander Wurz signed a deal with Williams F1 to become the team's official test driver and reserve driver.

		Alexander Wurz signed a deal at Williams to become the team's test driver and most likely Friday test driver for the team.
		Like Nigel Mansell, Alexander Wurz was something of a sleeper in the lower formulae and went largely unrated until he suddenly appeared midway through 1997 driving a Benetton alongside Jean Alesi.
		Wurz got his interest in motorsport from his father Franz, who had been a contemporary of John Button on the rallycross scene in the Seventies.
