🗣️'Ayumu’s performance might have been a shock for outsiders, but within the team we knew how good he was.' damsracing team owner Charles Pic says Red Bull junior ayumuiwasa_cars “has the talent” to win the Formula2 title in 2023 ⬇️
Pic, who made 39 grand prix starts F1 with Marussia and Caterham between 2012 and 2013, said: “I think we have the capability, but we are not the only ones. There are three or four teams that can win the championship.
“Ayumu has the talent to do it and he proved it in 2022. But there are also four or five drivers who can fight for the championship this season.“We will approach the year race-by-race and aim to extract the maximum performance so that we’re consistently up there.”Having taken over the team before the 2022 season, Pic says he was not surprised by Iwasa’s success, with the Japanese driver scoring two wins and six podiums.
“We immediately felt his potential and knew very early in the season how much talent he had, so we were prepared for his strong performances in the second half of the season. Iwasa will be joined by FIA Formula 3 graduate Arthur Leclerc in 2023, who finished sixth with Prema last season after winning the Formula Regional Asian Championship.Pic added: “The objective for Arthur is for him to progress as quickly as possible so he can compete at the front.
