David Beckmann will replace the injured Cem Bolukbasi at this weekend’s Formula 2 round at Imola, while Juan Manuel Correa will be absent from the Formula 3 event.
Bolukbasi suffered a sizeable accident during the previous Formula 2 round at Jeddah and while he briefly participated in the in-season test in Spain he will not race this weekend.
A medical check-up determined that Bolukbasi had sustained a rib fracture.
Beckmann will instead take his place at Charouz Racing System.
Beckmann, previously a race winner in Formula 3, claimed two podiums across a partial season with Charouz in 2021, and also entered a couple of events with Campos.
Elsewhere in the support paddock ART Grand Prix will be down to two cars for this weekend’s Formula 3 round after Correa withdrew his entry.
Correa suffered a stress fracture in his left foot last month and has been advised by doctors not to risk accentuating the injury.
He holds fifth place in the Formula 3 championship after scoring points in both races in Bahrain.
Further down the grid Jenzer Motorsport has recruited Federico Malvestiti to drive for the team in place of Niko Kari.
