Brazilian Roberto Faria has joined the Sauber Academy for 2022, as he prepares for his second full GB3 Championship season.
He will compete with Carlin in GB3, having moved up from the F4 British Championship with Fortec Motorsport in the latter stages of the 2020 season.
Shortly after stepping up to what was then BRDC British F3, he took his first podium at Silverstone at the final round.
His first full season brought nine podiums and a win at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, and caught the eye of Trevor Carlin‘s eponymous Teams’ Champions from down the paddock.
He will compete against Javier Sagrera and Callum Voisin at Carlin, and joins ART Grand Prix‘s FIA Formula 2 title favourite Théo Pourchaire in the Sauber Academy, associated with Alfa Romeo F1 Team ORLEN.
