Leading Formula 2 outfit DAMS and Lucas Oil will strengthen their existing partnership, starting with the French team being re-named DAMS Lucas Oil ahead of the upcoming campaign. Founded by Forrest Lucas in 1989, Lucas Oil remains a family-owned business and is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of oils, additives, lubricants and other workshop accessories.

DAMS is delighted to announce the signing of American-Ecuadorian Juan Manuel Correa for the 2024 FIA Formula 2 Championship, completing the team’s line-up alongside Jak Crawford.

DAMS’ Ayumu Iwasa took his third win of the 2023 FIA Formula 2 campaign with a dominant performance in the Sprint Race at Monaco. After qualifying ninth, the Red Bull Junior started on the front row for Saturday’s semi-reverse grid event. Showing great pace throughout, Iwasa took the lead on Lap 6 and was in control for the entire race, streaking clear of the field after a late Safety Car restart to win by over six seconds.

12 months ago, DAMS was taken over by ex-F1 driver Charles Pic. Although he doesn’t run the team directly on a day-to-day basis, Charles’ influence has been felt throughout the squad over the past year. Ahead of the 2023 season, Charles reflects on his time at DAMS so far and looks ahead to what could be in store for the upcoming campaign and beyond.

Ferrari Driver Academy member Arthur Leclerc will join DAMS for the 2023 FIA Formula 2 Championship.
