Felipe Drugovich, with his experience in Formula 2, knows what it takes to win a championship and what it’s like to race for a top team. It’s no surprise, then, that the Brazilian has a clear opinion on the title race in the feeder series. “I hope Richard Verschoor becomes champion with MP Motorsport,” he says.
In 2022, Drugovich raced in Formula 2 for the team from Westmaas. He delivered the first-ever driver’s title in the history of the Dutch racing team to team boss Sander Dorsman and his associates. And he himself secured a contract in Formula 1 as a result.
“I have great memories of MP Motorsport and that year,” says the Brazilian, who became a test and reserve driver for Aston Martin after his F2 championship. “I also know Richard as a driver. Fast. Good. Strong. I hope he becomes champion, I wish it for him.”
Despite his title, Drugovich has never raced in an F1 race, much like Fabio Leimer (champion of 2013), for example. Will Verschoor meet the same fate? Only time will tell.
