Formula 3 runner-up Nikola Tsolov has become the second announced driver for the 2026 Formula 2 season as he will continue with Campos Racing.
The Red Bull junior will make the step up to F2 after a record-breaking F3 season, which saw him become the most-capped race winner in the series.
Alongside finishing in second place behind Rafael Camara, Tsolov’s exploits also helped Campos win the F3 Teams’ Championship for the first time.
Tsolov’s relationship with Campos dates back to 2022, when the combination dominated the Spanish F3 championship, taking 13 victories in 21 races.
“I am extremely happy to take the next step in my career and move up to FIA Formula 2 with Campos Racing once again,” Tsolov said.
‘Together we have worked very hard and achieved success in both F4 Spain and FIA Formula 3, which gives me great confidence heading into next season.
“This is another step closer to my dream, and I will be pushing harder than ever to deliver strong results.”
Campos boss Adrian Campos Jr praised Tsolov for the professionalism and racecraft he has shown throughout his time with the team.
“We are extremely proud to continue working with Nikola for another year,” he added.
“He is very much one of our own, having taken his very first steps in single-seaters with Campos Racing.
“In the two seasons he has raced with us, he has been a champion and a runner-up, which are clear credentials of his outstanding talent.
A Formula 2 car is, of course, another level, but despite his youth, he already has a wealth of single-seater experience, displays great maturity, and we are confident he will also make his mark in FIA Formula 2.”
