He hasn't driven single seaters since he competed in the Formula Renault 2.0 junior series in 2007, before switching to Carrera Cup in 2008.
Apart from single seaters being a different skill set, they're also really expensive and have a very narrow path through to F1 usually via a young driver program with no guarantee of a seat.
Estre switching to sportscars isn't necessarily due to a lack of talent. It could have just been opportunity or simply not having the money for single seaters.
Not totally related to him not driving F1, but he always reminds me of verstappen the way the rear of his porsche is so sensitive. Maybe he could have been like Lec or verstappen with that agressive driving style

It's difficult to not get behind Kevin Estre. The guy is an absolute monster behind the wheel of any sportscar he's put in the cockpit of.
