Ralph Boschung explained: “It is amazing to step up to the FIA Formula 2 championship. Besides, driving for Campos Racing, which has a huge experience in motorsport working with top drivers. I want to learn as much as possible. My goal is to achieve points finishes in the first half of the season and then, building off the positive momentum, capture my first podium with more experience in the car”.

Adrián Campos added: “I´m delighted to have Ralph with our team in the FIA Formula 2 championship. It´s amazing to have a rookie driver at Campos Racing who was a race winner and podium contender in the highly contested GP3 Series. We are excited to help him make this transition. We have a promising season ahead”.
