Today is a very important day for the 2022 FIA Formula 3 season, as several teams have announced their drivers for the season that will start in a few weeks.
The first of the announcements concerned Francesco Pizzi, an Italian driver who moves to FIA Formula 3 after racing in Formula Regional last season, scoring 12 points and closing the season in 20th place.
However, Pizzi did very well in UAE Formula 4 in 2020, winning 8 races, also signing 3 pole positions and 10 podiums. This had led him to the category title, without counting the good second place in the Italian Formula 4 (3 wins and 7 podiums overall).
Pizzi will race with the Charouz Racing System team: “I am very happy to be racing with Charouz. I had a lot of fun doing the work done in the last few days in the factory and for me it will be a great opportunity. I will try to do the best possible work for the team. “.
For an Italian driver arriving in F3, there is also an Italian team, Trident, which has announced that it has signed Roman Stanek for the 2022 season. This will be his third season in the series for the 17-year-old after racing with Charouz Racing System in his debut season – in 2020 – and with Hitech Grand Prix last year.
The Czech driver took 4 Top 10 finishes and signed two podiums last season on the Budapest and Spa-Francorchamps tracks.
Rafael Villagomez, in his second season in FIA Formula 3, changed teams from HWA Racelab to Van Amersfoort Racing. Villagomez has already made contact with the team in the post-season tests carried out at the Ricardo Tormo in Valencia.
We also remember that, also in 2021, Villagomez also raced in the Euroformula Open with Van Amersfoort, taking 5 podiums and 135 points overall, closing the race in eighth place overall.
The latest announcement in chronological order today was signed by Campos Racing, which announced Hunter Yeany as second driver after having already announced the Spanish rookie Josep Maria Martì.
The 16-year-old American made his debut in the series last year with the Charouz Racing System team, racing in Spa-Francorchamps and Zandvoort. His best result was an 18th place. This year he will have the opportunity to play the full season with the Spanish team.
