“His journey through the junior series has been remarkable so far and, with his speed and potential, he is undoubtedly a great addition to our talented squad, said Beat Zehnder, director of the Sauber Academy. In addition to his campaign in F2, where he will try to succeed Théo Pourchaire on the prize list, Zane will also share with him the role of reserve driver for the Stake F1 Team. »

“The Sauber name resonates with Formula 1, as it has been a part of the sport for over thirty years and has paved the way for many drivers who have gone on to achieve great success, said Zane Maloney. I am happy to be part of this family and look forward to working with them this season, as I get closer to my goal of becoming a Formula 1 driver.”
