F2 star Enzo Fittipaldi remains hopeful of making it into F1 through his association with Red Bull.
Enzo - the grandson of two-time F1 champion Emerson Fittipaldi - joined Red Bull’s in late-2022 after a promising first full season in F2.
He finished eighth in the standings for the unfancied Charouz outfit, with his performances catching the attention of Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko. After a slow start to 2023, Fittipaldi enjoyed his best weekend to date at Spa-Francorchamps last time out, winning the sprint before following it up with a podium in the feature race.The Brazilian has his eyes set on F1 as he’s convinced “opportunities will show up” if he ups his game in the second half of the season.
“When you are in F2, performing is the first step, so as long as I continue with this momentum into the next few race weekends, who knows what could happen," Fittipaldi told Sky Sports.“So, right now what I'm focused on is continuing to do well, continuing to improve as a driver every time I go out on track, and hopefully, opportunities will show.
