Pizzi wi💞ll make the step up from Formula Regional after a disappointing season, finishing 20th in the drivers’ championship.

2020 was more fruitful though, winning the Formula 4 UAE Championship📖 and fi👍nishing runner-up in Italian F4.

Pizzi will team up with László Tóth at Charouz, with the identity of the third driver still yet to be announ🎃c꧃ed.

He didn’t tak🌄e p﷽art in the post-season Valencia test.

“I am obviously very excited to be joining Charouz Racing System,” said Pizzi. “I really enjoyed the wo💙rk we have already done together in the last few days at the factory.

“Th๊is is a great opportunity for me because the team has shown that it can be the right place for a young driver. I intend to make the most of this chance while doing the best possible job for 🏅the team.”

Charouz Team Owner Antonín Charouz added: “We're very pleased to add another important piece to our 2022 line-up. Francesco has already demonstrated with his past results that he has excellent potential, we’re sure that he will be♊ able right away to do his best working with all the engineers and mechanics in order to prepare for the first races and show what he can do in such a competitive championship.

“The beginning of the season is approaching very quickly and the whole team is already working ver🌟y hard to start off on the right foot and build a season that lives up to our expectations."

The new F3 se🥃ason kicks off on March 18-20 in Bahrain.
