Oliver Bearman preparing for Formula 1
Oliver Bearman, who excelled in sub-categories and joined the Ferrari driver academy, joined Formula 2022 this year after finishing third in the Formula 3 series in 2. The young talent takes the championship in sixth place with three wins and four podiums so far this year.
Bearman is expected to remain in Formula 2 for at least one more year as the odds of finishing this season as champion seem unlikely. But there are plans Ferrari made for itself in the background.
According to the news of the GrandPrix, the Italian team is looking to take Bearman to the track for the first time in an F1 race weekend at COTA. If all goes according to plan, Bearman will make his debut in the Haas VF-23 in the first session of the American GP.
"Ferrari's plan is to keep him at Prema next year to aim for the championship," the report said. it was said. "Then trying to find him a racing seat in 1, when many seats in Formula 2025 will be vacant," it said.
Ferrari had chosen reserve driver Robert Shwartzman for such tests last year. It is not known whether the Russian pilot will be put on the track like Bearman during the season.
