Ferrari junior driver Arthur Leclerc will remain in FIA Formula 3 for a second campaign with Prema.
Leclerc, younger brother of Ferrari Formula 1 racer Charles, stepped up to the tertiary category in 2021 and placed 10th in the standings.
Leclerc claimed two wins, at Paul Ricard and Zandvoort, and will remain with the team for 2022.
“It is great to continue our collaboration with Arthur,” said Prema Racing boss Rene Rosin.
“I am sure that he will carry on the progress we saw in 2021 when he showed he had the potential to be a frontrunner.
“Last year’s experience with the challenging three-race weekends will definitely help him navigate the events with a great focus, which will surely benefit the whole team.”
Prema has fielded the champion in each of the seasons since Formula 3 was rebranded in 2019, with Dennis Hauger following in the footsteps of Robert Shwartzman and Oscar Piastri.
Leclerc is Prema’s second confirmed signing for its three-driver 2022 campaign, having already recruited fellow Ferrari junior Oliver Bearman.
