David Beckmann (born 27 April 2000 in Iserlohn, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany) is a German racing driver, who will make his FIA Formula 2 Championship debut during the 2021 season.[1] Hired by Charouz Racing System for his rookie season, Beckmann joined F2 after several seasons in the FIA Formula 3 Championship and its predecessor the GP3 Series.[1]
Background[]
Beckmann began his career in karting, racing in various categories in his native Germany and Europe from 2008 until the end of the 2014 season.[2] In 2015 Beckmann stepped up into single-seaters, signing up to complete a duel campaign in the ADAC and Italian F4 Championships.[2] Driving for his local team Mücke Motorsport, Beckmann went on to claim fourth in Italian F4 with three wins, while claiming one win in ADAC F4 en-route to fifth.[2]
F3 and Beyond: 2016 - 2020[]
2016 saw Beckmann graduate into Formula 3, with the German youth remaining with Mücke Motorsport as they moved him into the FIA Formula 3 European Championship.[2] Finishing fifteenth, as well as appearances in the Masters and Macau Grand Prix, Beckmann would secure another season of F3 in 2017.[2] Finishing sixteenth, Beckmann would leave European F3 to join the GP3 Series for 2018, with the German youth going on to claim three victories after a mid-season team swap, finishing fifth in the championship.[2]
Beckmann remained in GP3 after its merger with European F3, and was deemed to be one of the favourites for the inaugural FIA Formula 3 Championship.[2] However, a difficult season saw Beckmann slide to fourteenth in the table without threatening the podium, leading him to move to Trident for 2020.[2] The change in teams would work somewhat for Beckmann, with the German youth scoring two victories en-route to sixth in the championship.[2]
Formula 2 History[]
Beckmann would get his first taste of an FIA Formula 2 Championship car at the 2020 Bahrain Post-Season Test, with Charouz Racing System giving him a full three days of running.[3] After a reasonable showing at the test Beckmann was signed by Charouz for the 2021 season, with the Czech squad partnering the German rookie with sophomore runner Guilherme Samaia.[1]
