Nannini will focus on F3.

The experienced British driver is making his return to Formula 2 this weekend, replacing Matteo Nannini who is competing this season in F2, but also in F3. Jack Aitken, a member of the Williams Driver Academy, with three seasons in F2 (11 podiums and 4 wins) and who replaced George Russell in F1 in Bahrain last year, is very honored to return to F2.

« I was surprised, but also very honored that HWA asked me to support the team in Monaco and Baku,” said Jack Aitken. « These are two of my favorite circuits and it’s going to be a real pleasure! »

(I)I know HWA from past races, where we competed against each other. I have always been aware of their racing level. I am looking forward to returning to Formula 2 and working with HWA to get the most out of the two weekends.

On his part, the young Italian driver will focus on his F3 season, as he had a good start at Barcelona with a podium finish.

Thomas Strick, director of the HWA RaceLab team, stated; “We are delighted to have recruited such a talented driver as Jack. With his rich experience in this Formula 2 championship, he will be of great help to us. As for Matteo, he will focus on the Formula 3 Championship for the rest of the season, he has already shown his potential in this discipline.”
