Luca Ghiotto replaces Roy Nissany who is suspended at Monza
Roy Nissany (DAMS) will be suspended this weekend for the meeting in Italy. The Israeli driver has received a race suspension for accumulating twelve points on his license. Luca Ghiotto returns to Formula 2 to replace him.
After the meeting in the Netherlands, the Israeli driver Roy Nissany received a two-point suspension on his license. His total is now 13 points. This means that the Dams driver will be suspended this weekend for the penultimate meeting of the season in Monza.
Dams has relied on experience, that’s why the French team is calling on Luca Ghiotto.

The last season of the Italian in Formula 2 dates back to 2020 (a tenth place in the general classification with Hitech GP).
His comeback may not be trivial. Indeed, after this meeting, the Italian will be the driver who has participated the most in a GP2/F2 race. His current total is 91 (the leader in the standings is Louis Deletraz with 92).
Luca Ghiotto is also the one with the most podiums and has scored the most points in the Formula 1 feeder series (24 podiums and 609 points).
The records will need to be updated after this meeting!
