Jack Doohan joins FIA Formula 3 grid with HWA RACELAB
Australian Jack Doohan will join the FIA Formula 3 grid after being announced as part of the HWA RACELAB team for 2020 alongside Jake Hughes and Enzo Fittipaldi.
The German team joined the Formula 3 championship last season, finishing fifth after one win and three podiums for Jake Hughes.
Doohan came second in the 2019 F3 Asian Championship, and is currently a front-runner in the 2020 series after the first round. Doohan was also 2018 rookie cup winner in the British F4 Championship.
"I am pleased to be part of the HWA RACELAB team in the 2020 FIA Formula 3 Championship," Doohan elated. "I can hardly wait for the start of the season. HWA is known for its competitiveness and I am confident that will be the case again this year.
“The last two years of racing have given me a good basis. I now hope I can challenge for the title with a top team like HWA RACELAB."
HWA CEO Ulrich Fritz added: "After our promising first season last year, we are now looking to use the experience gained to improve again and consistently have more than one driver challenging for the podium this season. I am delighted that we have managed to secure the services of Jack and Enzo.
“However, we did not opt for them because of their famous names, but because of their immense talent, which they have both demonstrated emphatically in recent years. The FIA Formula 3 Championship is the next level for them both. In Jake, they have the right teacher at their side, from whom they can learn an awful lot."
