New Williams recruit Logan Sargeant finally gets a proper crack at Formula 2 with Carlin – a team that almost certainly underdelivered in 2021. With the strides MP has made since then, don’t even rule out a championship bid against the F1 junior drivers.Ģ022: F2 with Carlin 2020: 7th in FIA F3 (1 win) We saw flashes of the devastating drives Drugovich can be capable of in ’21, and he’ll look to recapture that ‘20 form that guided him to pole positions and wins against what felt like far superior opposition. Strong results will put him in the shop window, if not for F1, but in other huge championships across the globe. That combined with how well Drugovich did in the team in 2020, the point he has to prove this year after a difficult ’21 campaign with frontrunners Virtuosi Racing, and the raw speed he’s shown in lower categories, means that combination could well be in position to spring a major surprise this year when considering last year’s results.īut the rapid Brazilian, one of the quickest in F2 not to be aligned to a Formula 1 team, has gained plaudits from rivals in the past and that this is perhaps his last realistic shot to make a claim for a step up to the highest echelon of motorsport makes his story one to keep an eye on through the year. MP Motorsport was picked out in our ‘what we learned from the 2021 F2 season’ podcast as a team that perhaps underachieved with the speed of the car at its disposal. Can Doohan do enough to usurp his former rival?Ģ022: F2 with MP Motorsport 2021: 8th in F2ĭrugovich returns to the team he ran so well with back in 2020 in F2.

In the circumstance that a seat does open up at the Anglo-French outfit for 2023, Doohan needs to somehow give the bosses a serious headache given the vastly prepared triple junior series champion Oscar Piastri, his countryman, is hammering at the door desperate to find himself in a seat. How he adapts to life in Alpine’s F1 academy will be fascinating, having been associated with Red Bull for a number of years.

Despite being the less-experienced driver in the line-up, he can be expected to spearhead Virtuosi’s charge against rivals he’ll be all-too-familiar with from his time in FIA F3. It will be a different environment to that of Trident (and MP), the Italian team in particular Doohan was highly fond of, but the son of motorcycling legend Mick is in a good position to be able to build on his brilliant 2021.
With Virtuosi Racing, a top-three F2 team for a few seasons now, Doohan is likely to have that even if the team lacked the sharpness last year it had in 2020. He ended up pushing a little bit too hard that weekend, but it gave a real hint of what he could be capable of as a rookie given decent enough equipment. Instead, the Vegas venue has been recreated using reference images and photogrammetry data.Jack Doohan arrived in F2 late last year off the back of almost taking the FIA F3 title after a fine season built on raw speed and outstanding wet-weather performances and stunned almost immediately by sending MP Motorsport to the front row at just the second attempt. Unlike many contemporary rivals, the Formula 1 game does not use laser-scan technology to recreate its circuits. The trackside furniture appears to be the main draw here, as opposed to the layout itself, although we’ll reserve final judgment for when the game ships next month, and perhaps more pertinently, the grand prix later in the year. The average speed for the venue is set to be among the highest on the calendar. While the asphalt is mostly a simple straight line with a kink, it’s adorned on either side by large hotels and the Eiffel Tower Restaurant – all faithfully recreated in-game. After Turn 4, there’s a high-speed straight leading into a tricky, and tight, Turn 5 to Turn 9 complex abutting the illuminated Sphere venue.įurther around the lap, we head down Las Vegas Boulevard. Held at night – as will the actual race in November – there’s a relatively short sprint into the first corner, a sweeping left-hander. In the footage, EA and Codemasters’s Social and Content Manager PJ Tierney uses the generic and customisable player car, starting from 22nd on the grid of a three-lap race.
