Ralph Boschung will make his Formula 2 return this weekend in Bahrain, stepping in for Jack Aitken at Campos.
Boschung has already been signed to the Spanish team for the 2021 season, however his promotion has come earlier than expected, following Aitken’s call-up to Formula 1.
Aitken will make his F1 debut at Williams this weekend, replacing George Russell who has been called up to Mercedes to fill in for seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton, who has contracted Covid-19.
Campos says the upcoming race will give the team and Boschung an early start to building a relationship for the 2021 season.
“We are glad to have Ralph with us this weekend as it will give us a nice opportunity to start working together for next year,” said Campos Team Principal Adrian Campos.
“In such a professional racing environment, it is a golden chance for everybody.
“We expect to have a strong run in Sakhir with our drivers Ralph and Guilherme [Samaia]. We are looking forward to racing on this new layout, which looks exciting.”
Boschung will also test with Campos at the post-season test, which will take place at the Bahrain International Circuit.
The Swiss driver spent three years in F2 from 2017 to 2019, scoring a best result of seventh on three occasions for both Campos and MP Motorsport.
