Briton Olli Caldwell will compete at the final two rounds of the FIA Formula 2 Championship this year, replacing David Beckmann at Campos.
Caldwell spent the 2021 campaign racing for Prema in Formula 3, ending the year eighth in the standings with one victory and a further three podiums to his name.
The 19-year-old will step into the car next weekend at Jeddah and will also race at the season’s final round in Abu Dhabi as he targets a full-time seat in 2022.
“I’m excited to join Campos for the last two rounds,” said Caldwell. “They’ve made good progression throughout the year so I’m really looking forward to working with them.
“I want to thank the team for the opportunity, I can’t wait to see what the car can do and gain experience ahead of my goal of a full season in Formula 2 next year.”
Caldwell will partner Ralph Boschung at Campos, who was recently confirmed full-time at the team for 2022.
Campos currently sits seventh in the Teams’ standings ahead of the final two events of the season.
“I would like to extend a warm welcome to Olli from Campos Racing,” the team’s sporting director Adrian Campos said.
“Olli is a driver who always awakened our interest and very recently he has played a key role in the FIA Formula 3 in which he performed excellently.
“Our goal is to help him to rapidly adapt to the Formula 2 car. We feel confident that joining Ralph, our driver line-up will be able to deliver strong performances and achieve top results during the last two rounds.”
