With the new FIA Formula 2 season right around the corner, the grid has been completed. 22 drivers will take to the track as they look to perform under the watchful eyes of the Formula 1 paddock – but who are the drivers?
“The F2 grid for the 2024 season features a mix of both experienced and rookie drivers. One notable returning driver is Richard Verschoor, who will be competing with Trident for his fourth year in the highest junior category of single-seaters. However, there are also several highly anticipated rookies, including Kimi Antonelli from PREMA, who was promoted to the series after winning the Formula Regional title last year. Antonelli will be joined by Oliver Bearman, another talented young driver aiming for championship success. Additionally, Ritomo Miyata, the Super Formula champion, has made the move to F2 and will partner with Zane Maloney at Rodin. Other notable drivers making the step up from F3 to F2 include Gabriel Bortoleto, Isack Hadjar, Franco Colapinto, and Taylor Barnard. It remains to be seen which of these drivers will impress enough to earn a spot on the F1 grid in the future.”
