Formula 3 runner-up and Audi Formula 1 junior Freddie Slater will step up to Formula 2 with Invicta Racing in 2027.

The 2024 Italian F4 and 2025 Formula Regional European champion was signed by Audi to spearhead its new Driver Development Programme in 2026, while he moved to F3 with Trident.

Four consecutive feature-race podiums meant Slater snatched the lead of the championship away from sophomore Ugo Ugochukwu going into the summer break, but he only scored 15 more points across the last five races of the season and was surpassed by the Campos driver in the title battle.
