Ranking the 10 best drivers from F1's junior series in 2022
The ladder to F1 never gets any less slippery. But a strong cast of Formula 3 and Formula 2 aces proved sure of foot as they continued their climbs in 2022
Both Formula 2 and Formula 3 yielded fierce competition this season. Felipe Drugovich fended off Theo Pourchaire for the upper tier title while Victor Martins emerged victorious from a six-strong tussle heading into the season finale in F3.
Martins was always the favourite for the F3 title as the highest-placed returning driver from 2021, having finished fifth for MP Motorsport, and a move to ART made Martins’ chances even stronger. It was evident from the opening round that the Frenchman had his sights firmly set on the crown, winning the Bahrain feature race from third on the grid before taking another podium the following weekend in the Imola sprint race.
