Arthur Leclerc will continue his path towards F1 at Prema in 2022. After a first season marked by two victories (Castellet, Zandvoort) but a little inconsistency, the Monegasque will once again align with the Italian structure for a second year in the category. “I am extremely happy to continue the work started in 2021 by F3 with Prema. I think we did a good job last year, and 2022 will be a good opportunity to put together everything we have learned so far.” 

Preparation in Asia for Leclerc

Always supported by Team Ferrari, Leclerc will notably team up with rookie Oliver Bearman, the ADAC and Italian F4 champion, while most probably waiting for Jak Crawford, when Red Bull will make its simultaneous announcements. For his part, Rene Rosin, the Team Principal, was very happy at the idea of ​​keeping the 21-year-old driver in his ranks. “It’s great to continue our collaboration with Arthur. I am certain that he will capitalize on his progress made in 2021, where he showed that he had the potential to play at the forefront. 

As a reminder, he is the third driver to have been made official in F3 so far, after Oliver Bearman and Grégoire Saucy (ART Grand Prix), the champion of the Regional Formula by Alpine. As a reminder, the season will kick off in Bahrain, in support of F1, on March 20. In the meantime, Charles' younger brother will prepare for his season in Asia by competing in the five rounds of the Formula Regional Asian Championship (FRAC), within the Mumbai Falcons team technically supported by Prema.
