Dino Beganovic moves to DAMS Lucas Oil for the 2026 campaign

DAMS Lucas Oil have announced their first driver signing of the 2026 season, with Dino Beganovic set to race for the team next year.

Beganovic is in the midst of his first full campaign in Formula 2, and is currently eighth in the Drivers’ Standings with one victory and Pole Position, as well four podiums in total.

Prior to that, the Swede competed in the final two rounds of the 2024 F2 season with DAMS, achieving a third-place finish in the Yas Marina Sprint Race.

The Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy member also achieved nine podiums, which included two wins during his two seasons in Formula 3.

Beganovic also won the 2022 Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine after finishing third in the 2020 Italian F4 season.

The 21-year-old is now set for another season in F2 and is delighted to be doing so with DAMS. “I’m extremely happy to return to DAMS Lucas Oil for another season in Formula 2,” said Beganovic. “I felt an instant connection with the team last year — both on a professional and human level — and we showed great potential together, including a podium in Abu Dhabi.

“I’m grateful for the trust they’ve placed in me, and for the continued support from the Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy. The goal now is to build on the progress we’ve made and fight consistently at the front.”

DAMS Lucas Oil Team Owner Charles Pic also added: “We were impressed by Dino’s maturity and professionalism during his first outings with us. His work ethic, technical understanding and consistency perfectly match the values of our team. We’re thrilled to welcome him back for this next step in his career, and we’re confident we can achieve great things together.”
