Jake Hughes completes the HWA crew

The HWA Racelab crew is now complete. After Bent Viscaal et Keyvan Andres, it is Jake Hughes who has been confirmed in the satellite team of Mercedes.

The 24-year-old Briton is a regular at the F3 after finishing 5th in the European Championship with HitechGP in 2017. The former British F4 champion subsequently moved to the GP3 Series within the ART GP team, an experience which resulted in a 8th position in the Drivers ranking.

“HWA has a lot of competition experience. I am proud to join this family, comments the person concerned. This is an exciting new adventure for the company and I want to help them write this new chapter. I couldn't miss this opportunity. We will face the best teams in the discipline. I can't wait to fight for victory. »
