I muri i te wa hei taraiwa whakamatautau mo te roopu Lotus i te tau 1995, ka whakakapi a Papis i a Gianni Morbidelli i te roopu Footwork mo nga whakataetae e whitu i waenganui o te wa o te Formula One 1995, i a ia e kawe ana i nga kaitautoko nui ki te kakahu moni. Ahakoa he toa-whakataetae i te Formula 3000, he maha nga wa i raru ai ia ki te motuka kaore i mohiotia, ana i etahi wa ka whakanuia e tana hoa roopu tino kino, a Taki Inoue. I kitea hoki ia he kaihauturu waimarie, i te mamae i te pakaru nui me te pakaru o te aukati i tana whakataetae tuatahi i Silverstone
na te tapahi i te pakitara o te ara pit i muri i te huringa taera, i mahue i runga i te mata i Hockenheim na te ngoikoretanga o te whakawhiti, me te hurihuri i runga i te puehu me te hinu i werohia e David Coulthard i te Ascari Chicane i te huringa tuatahi o te GP o Itari, i puta ai te puranga me te tiimata ano. Heoi, i ngaro noa ia i tetahi tohu i te whakataetae kua tiimata ano i te wa i paahitia ai ia e te Sauber a Jean-Christophe Boullion i te poro whakamutunga. I te hokinga mai o Morbidelli, kua mutu a Papis i te taraiwa, ka haere ki Amerika mo 1996.
