Gabriele Minì switches to PREMA Racing for 2024 campaign

Gabriele Minì will return for a second Formula 3 season in 2024, switching to reigning Teams’ Champions PREMA Racing.

A two-time race winner after scoring victories in the Monte Carlo Feature Race and Budapest Sprint, Minì rounded out his rookie campaign seventh in the Drivers’ Standings for Hitech Pulse-Eight.

Participating in the three two-day post-season tests with PREMA, the Alpine junior put together an impressive showing. The 18-year-old toped the timing sheets across both days in Imola and earned a further three top two worthy times in Barcelona and Jerez.

“I'm very happy to join PREMA Racing for the 2024 season,” said Minì. “The team had a very strong season last year, and we had some very promising tests together at Jerez and Barcelona.

"Our only goal will be to fight for the title, and I cannot wait to hit the track and start the new season! I would like to thank the Alpine Academy and All Road Management for their strong support to make it happen.”

Next season, Minì reunite with the team that helped take him to glory in Italian F4 in 2020. From there, the Italian racer finished seventh in the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine. Returning for a second campaign, he earned the runner-up honours, just behind eventual Champion and 2024 teammate Dino Beganovic.

Team Principal René Rosin added: "We are really proud to have Gabriele back with us. We thoroughly enjoyed working with him back in 2020 and we are happy to do it again now.

"We are extremely delighted by how our 2024 line-up is coming together as we have proven winners with high potential and great experience on our side. We cannot wait for the new season to start, and we look forward to the preparation work ahead.”
