The Formula 2 family suffered an immense loss after one of its brighter stars, Anthoine Hubert, tragically died in a horrific accident on Lap 2 of last week’s Feature Race at Spa-Francorchamps. The loveable Frenchman was in his rookie season and was highly regarded by the entire motorsport community. Not only was he a great driver, but he was also an amazing character whose infectious smile lit-up our paddock. This season, he had achieved two superb wins in Monaco and on home-soil at Le Castellet.

The F2 and F3 community gathered alongside many other motorsport members on the starting grid of F3 Race 2 last Sunday for a minute of silence in remembrance of Anthoine’s vibrant life.

The paddock reunites this week at Monza in Italy for the tenth round of the season. With their hearts still in Spa, the teams and the drivers will race for Anthoine to honour their fierce competitor and their friend whom they miss dearly.
