Crawford joins DAMS for 2024 F2 season after Red Bull split

Jak Crawford has joined DAMS for the 2024 Formula 2 championship, continuing his junior career without the support of Red Bull.

The 18-year-old American drove for Hitech in 2023, scoring his maiden win in the Red Bull Ring sprint race, as well as four other podiums.

He will now move to French outfit DAMS for his second campaign, and will take part in the post-season test in Abu Dhabi with the team later this week.

Crawford confirmed earlier this month that he would no longer be a member of the Red Bull Junior Team, joining fellow F2 driver Dennis Hauger in departing the line-up.

“We are thankful for the Red Bull funding for four years, and honestly, we could not have done much of it without their substantial support,” he said. "We were wanting to make key decisions and we let them know mid-year.

“After that, they didn’t pick up my fifth and final year, so we are in control now. I truly appreciate everyone at Red Bull, especially Rocky [Guillaume Rocquelin]. I really enjoyed the last two years with him at the factory."
