Vesti has spent the last two seasons racing in For🐓mula 3, finishing fourth in 🌺both campaigns.

His rookie season in 2020 for Prema was🦹 im☂pressive as he claimed three victories.

The Danꩲe was consistent in 2021 but struggled to win frequently, only finishing on th💮e top step once at the Red Bull Ring.

Vesti will team up with the hig༒hly-rated Theo Pourchaire, who is part of Sauber’s academy.

Speaking of the announcement, Vesti said: “To sign my FIA Formula 2 contract with ART Grand Prix is a b👍ig thing for me. We worked incredibly hard in F3 last season and to continue the progress into Formula 2 together is important for my next step.

“Now it is crucial to understan🌠d all the small details of Formula 2 to achieve the maximum in 2022. Testing in Abu Dhabi went really well, and I learned a lot of new things. I can’t wait to be in the car for the first test in Bahrain! I want to thank ART Grand Prix for this great opportunity and for believing in me.”

ART Grand Prix team principal Sébastien Philippe added: “The first year of the partnership was fruitful for both sides with several podiums and a win that saw Fred end the year in 4th place with a total of 17 top 10s in 20 rac🉐es. Some details kept him from fighting for the title, but we know he has what it✃ takes to do so.

“After two years of F3, the logical continuation of our collaboration goes through F2. The offseason♎ testing has met our expectations and in 2022 we will aim to fight at the forefront.”

The new F2 season gets undꦺerway in Bahrain on March 18-20.
