Théo Pourchaire will drive in F2 in 2021
It was an announcement that had been eagerly awaited for a few weeks in the world of Formula 2, it is now official, French driver Théo Pourchaire will indeed be behind the wheel of an ART Grand Prix car next season.
If the native of Grasse had made his debut in F2 at the wheel of an HWA Racelab during the last two events of the 2020 season, his signature was rather expected on the French team ART Grand Prix.
New season, new division ????

F4, F3 and now F2, nothing seems to stop the 17-year-old French driver who had shown during our interview great ambitions for his future, with Formula 1 in sight. Engaged in Formula 3 last season with ART Grand Prix, he seems to have managed to attract and convince the Burgundian team with his second place in the F3 driver standings.
Théo Pourchaire will meet many of his former Formula 3 rivals such as Lirim Zendeli (MP Motorsport), Liam Lawson (Hitech GP), Matteo Nannini and Alessio Deledda (Campos Racing), and finally the 2020 F3 champion Oscar Piastri (Prema). Art Grand Prix has not yet announced the name of Théo Pourchaire’s future teammate. Many young F3 drivers are looking for a seat in F2 for the 2021 season.
