A major milestone has been officially reached in the racing career of Ugo Ugochukwu as he prepares for the next chapter in single-seater racing. The talented American driver is set to advance to the FIA Formula 2 Championship for the 2027 season, continuing his successful partnership with the Spanish squad that guided him to previous championship glory.
Securing the FIA Formula 3 title with Campos Racing served as the ultimate springboard for this promotion. Throughout the previous F3 campaign, the 19-year-old standout secured two race victories and climbed the podium on seven separate occasions, instrumental contributions that also helped the team claim the coveted teams' championship crown.
Ugochukwu's recent motorsport resume highlights a remarkably steep trajectory. Prior to his F3 dominance, he triumphed in the Formula Regional Oceania Championship and captured victories in Euro 4 and the prestigious Macau Grand Prix. This sustained period of success convinced the team management to trust him with a coveted seat in the direct feeder series to Formula 1.
"I am extremely proud to announce that I will stay with Campos Racing for the 2027 FIA Formula 2 season," Ugochukwu stated. "After winning the F3 championship together, I am ready to take the next step and fight for more success at a higher level."
Team leadership shared equal enthusiasm regarding the retention of their star driver. Team principal Adrian Campos highlighted the young driver's exceptional work ethic and rapid progression as vital attributes for the upcoming challenge in the highly competitive F2 paddock. "Ugo is a driver of exceptional talent and enormous potential. We have witnessed firsthand his capabilities, professionalism, and above all, his constant improvement," Campos remarked.
While Campos Racing has yet to finalize the teammate who will line up alongside Ugochukwu for the upcoming campaign, recent private and official testing sessions at venues such as Jerez de la Frontera and the Red Bull Ring have heavily pointed toward Theophile Nael as the leading candidate for the remaining seat.
