Arthur Leclerc to join Dams in 2023
The 2022 Formula 2 season ended this weekend, and the teams are already looking ahead to 2023. Arthur Leclerc has been announced at Dams for next year.
The 2022 season barely closed when teams are already announcing their drivers for 2023.
This morning, the legendary French team Dams announced that Arthur Leclerc will be in one of their race cars next year. The Monegasque driver finished this 2022 Formula 3 season in sixth place.
Charles Leclerc’s little brother, who is a member of the Ferrari Driver Academy, is set to be with Dams as of this week for the post-season F2 tests (23-25 November) at the Yas Marina circuit.
The second seat should remain in the hands of Ayumu Iwasa, who just won this weekend’s main race.
