One Formula 2 seat left for 2024 as Trident confirm Stanek’s return · RaceFans

Roman Stanek has taken the penultimate place on the Formulation 2 grid for the upcoming season.

The Czech teenager, who will flip 20 earlier than the season begins, has secured a return to Trident, who he made his F2 debut for final yr. It will likely be his third yr on the group having positioned third in Formulation 3 with them the season earlier than.

Trident group supervisor Giacomo Ricci mentioned Stanek “has been a part of our household for a very long time and was capable of present successful outcomes prior to now.”

“We’re sure that each one the elements are there to do properly and obtain more and more formidable targets collectively,” he added. “The expertise acquired in 2023 will show pivotal to start out the brand new season with the perfect situations and most dedication.”

Having taken a single win for the group in 2022, Stanek managed a better of fifth place throughout his first yr as an F2 driver, within the partial-reversed-grid race on the Crimson Bull Ring. He ended the season 18th.

Stanek’s group mate will likely be Richard Verschoor, who raced for Trident in F2 two years in the past, and is embarking on his fourth season within the class.

Trident’s announcement leaves PHM as the one group but to verify its driver line-up for the approaching season. The group which fielded Roy Nissany and Brad Benavides beforehand confirmed newcomer Joshua Duerksen as its first driver for 2024.
