The drivers of the Red Bull Junior Team have been revealed
Red Bull has unveiled its fleet of young drivers. Twelve drivers are part of the Red Bull Junior Team for 2023. Let's discover these drivers, including two French ones.
The Red Bull entity is well known for trusting young individuals, and once again this year, the Austrian team does not disappoint with its young team (the Red Bull Junior Team).
No less than six drivers will take part in Formula 2, the stepping stone to Formula 1. Just over a quarter of the grid will be adorned (probably) with a Red Bull livery.
Let’s discover these young talents to watch:
Formula 2
Dennis Hauger
Ayumu Iwasa.
Enzo Fittipaldi
Isack Hadjar
Zane Maloney
Jak Crawford
Dennis Hauger (MP Motorsport) and Ayumu Iwasa (Dams) will attempt a second season in Formula 2 with the goal of winning the championship.
Another repeater, and one who is new to the RBJT: Enzo Fittipaldi (Carlin). He will also be a contender for the title.
French driver Isack Hadjar is rejoining Red Bull and also Hitech GP, but this time in Formula 2. Another rookie has joined the RBJT: Zane Maloney, the vice champion of Formula 3 in 2022.
The American Jak Crawford, who had a less impressive performance in Formula 3, will be Isack Hadjar’s teammate at Hitech this season.
We can say it… Red Bull has an armada of Formula 2 drivers.
Super Formula.
The Japanese formula is set to welcome a new RBJT driver, following in the footsteps of Pierre Gasly (among others), it is Liam Lawson, third in the 2022 Formula 2 championship, who is heading to the land of the rising sun to compete in the Super Formula with the Honda Mugen team (just like Pierre Gasly).
Formula 3
Sebastien Montoya, son of former Formula 1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya. The Colombian finished the 2022 FRECA season in thirteenth place with Prema. In 2022, he also competed in 2 races with Campos in Formula 3 where he scored 7 points in Zandvoort.
In the British Formula 3 (GB3) championship, Souta Arao, who finished third in Formula 4 in 2022, will attempt to clinch the title with Hitech GP.
Formula 4
In F4 Italian, we will have Arvid Lindblad, the 15-year-old Englishman, as a contender for the title with Prema.
Newcomer at RBJT also for a Frenchman! Enzo Deligny. He is transitioning from Karting to single-seater racing. He will be racing for Campos in the Spanish F4 (current championship-winning team, with notable driver Nikola Tsolov…). This bodes well for the 14-year-old French talent.
Karting
Then Red Bull signed a (very) young Thai karting pilot: Enzo Tarnvanichkul.
Five drivers had to leave Red Bull: Jehan Daruvala, Juri Vips, Jonny Edgar, Noel Leon, and Yuto Nomurane.
