The FIA Formula 2 Championship returns from its summer break this coming weekend as the Formula 2 series heads to Spa-Francorchamps to support the Belgian Grand Prix after a one-year hiatus in 2021.

Looking to make up for a disappointing race that ended without a points finish at Hungaroring, PREMA Racing lines up on a radically different track, with high-speed corners flowing through the forest and extreme elevation changes.

Red Bull Junior drivers Dennis Hauger and Jehan Daruvala will look to regain their form from earlier in the season that handed them nine combined podiums, including two wins.

The Indian Daruvala is currently the team’s frontrunner in the championship with P5, while the Norwegian Hauger is standing back in P12, hoping for a return to the top-10 to end a 4-race pointless streak. 

Rene Rosin – PREMA Racing Team Principal

“We look forward to going back to one of the most classic and challenging tracks on the calendar. We had a couple of rough weekends, so we hope to set the record straight and move in the right direction for the final part of the year. We showed what we are capable to achieve, now we need to execute, especially in qualifying, as it is necessary to set the tone for the rest of the weekend.”
