Since 1988, Emanuele was McLaren's Formula 1 test driver for several years. He did much testing at Suzuka. Pirro is shown here aside of the first McLaren equipped with a Honda engine, an MP4/3 that had been powered originally by TAG-Porsche.

After he had started very successfully in the Japanese so-called "Grand Champion Championship", which is similar to the European Interserie, Emanuele should have become the champion. But his engagement for Benetton's Formula 1 team forced him to leave out some of the races in Japan, and so Pirro finally became vice-champion in his Reynard.
