Richard Verschoor with MP Motorsport in Bahrain

That's it, the grid of the Formula 2 is finally complete! In any case for the first round in Bahrain, which will take place this weekend (March 26-28). The Dutchman Richard Verschoor will indeed drive for MP Motorsport in Sakhir, after having taken part in the pre-season tests which were held on this same track two weeks earlier. 

The Batavian team has indeed announced that the winner of the 2019 Macau Grand Prix will ride with them in Bahrain, without specifying whether this will still be the case thereafter. In any case, there are almost two months separating the first from the second meeting, which is just as much time for MP Motorsport to make a decision. As a reminder, Verschoor was already playing with MP last season in the FIA F3 (9th). He will team up with another rookie, the German Lirim Zendeli. 

It's happening. IT'S RACE WEEK So grateful for this opportunity. Ready to hit the track with @mpmotorsport_ in the @ Formula2 series. #F2 pic.twitter.com/DfU9E4pMaC
