Petecof makes leap to F2 with Campos for 2021
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Campos Racing has finalised its 2021 driver line-up for the upcoming FIA Formula 2 Championship after announcing the signing of Gianluca Petecof.

Petecof emerged victorious in the Formula Regional European Championship in 2020, but question marks hung over his future amid a lack of funds.

However, Campos has confirmed that the 18-year-old will line-up alongside Ralph Boschung this year, with the Brazilian making his debut at pre-season testing in March.

Petecof labelled being recruited by Adrian Campos prior to the Spaniard’s death late last month as an “honour”.

“It is an honour to know that one of the great Adrian [Campos’] last wishes was to have me in a Campos car and it motivates me in a special way more than ever before,” said Petecof.

“Campos Racing has a winning culture and giving unique opportunities to young drivers is in the team’s DNA. I cannot wait to start working with them and prove ourselves once again.”

Petecof spent the last three seasons racing for Prema in junior categories as part of the Ferrari Driver Academy.

Last week, Petecof confirmed that he had left the Italian marque’s junior programme, insisting he was ready to start “a new chapter” in his career.

Prior to his FREC title success in 2020, he raced in the 2018 and 2019 Italian and German Formula 4 series’, taking six victories across the two seasons.

Sporting Director Adrián Campos Jr. said: “I am sure that I speak on behalf of the entire team if I say that we are very excited to complete our Formula 2 driver line up with such a professional driver and so much hunger for victory like Gianluca.

“He has made a very important step of category and will have hard work ahead, but don’t forget that he is the current champion of the Formula Regional so we all have a lot of confidence and enthusiasm in the results that both Gianluca and Ralph can achieve in this 2021 season.

“This is an agreement that my father did not have the opportunity to complete before he passed away, but we know that completing the F2 line up with Gianluca was his wish and we have fought very hard to make it happen.

“I want to welcome him on behalf of Campos Racing and wish him the best of luck in this 2021 season.”
