Newly-crowned Formula2 champion Felipe Drugovich is in the frame to become Aston Martin's F1 reserve in 2023, with an Abu Dhabi FP1 outing on the cards. Full story ⬇️
While nothing has been confirmed by the team, an important step towards a deal was taken when the Brazilian clinched the F2 title in Monza on Saturday.
It can’t pull off a PR coup by running Drugovich at his home race in Brazil, as it is a sprint weekend, so the team has provisionally targeted the Abu Dhabi finale for whoever gets the nod. The Silverstone team still has an operational AMR21 from last season, which is set to be driven in October by Aston Martin Autosport BRDC Young Driver of the Year Award winner Zak O’Sullivan as part of his prize. In theory, the team could run Drugovich on the same day.
