Ferrari junior driver Beganovic is the highest-placed returning driver in F3 this year after ending 2023 in sixth place and has therefore been earmarked as one of the early title favourites.
But his rookie campaign ended on somewhat of a sour note as he picked up just two points from the final four outings, seeing him drop out of the battle for second overall.
“Finishing sixth last year, there were a lot of positives to take from that season, but in the end, I was not happy with how it finished,” said Beganovic.
“We were in a good place during most of the year and then the last couple of rounds were really not good. That is what I’m trying to fix this year – to take the positives from last year and just fix the stuff that was less good.
“It doesn’t give me more pressure, at least I don’t see it like that. It gives me a boost of confidence that I know I’m up there within the top drivers and that I can do an even better job this year.”
Although Logan Sargeant proved that spending three years in F3 does not rule out a future in F1, it is rare for drivers to spend more than two years in the category before progressing to the next stage of their development.
