Italian squad ramps up preparations following successful 2023 run
With the 2023 season all wrapped up in the Monza 2023 finale, PREMA Racing will soon be back for the traditional FIA Formula 3 Championship postseason test at Jerez de La Frontera. New talent is set to join the team as it ramps up preparations for 2024. The lineup will feature a remarkable trio of drivers featuring a talented rookie, a coming back, and a return from the 2023 season.
Dino Beganovic will be back in the cockpit after a positive debut year in FIA F3. The Ferrari Driver Academy-supported Swede scored four podiums this year so he will be relying on a good amount of experience at the technical Spanish venue.
Gabriele Minì will make a welcomed comeback under the PREMA banner after winning the Italian Formula 4 Championship with the team in 2020. Now representing the Alpine Academy, the 18-year-old Italian had a positive debut FIA F3 season this year with two wins to his credit.
Also coming from the PREMA family, Red Bull Junior driver Arvid Lindblad will be dipping his toe into Formula 3 competition before going back to F4 for the final part of the season. The 16-year-old racer is in the hunt for both the Italian F4 Championship and the brand-new Euro4 Championship.

"I’m happy to do the postseason test with PREMA. We have been working together for a long time and it’s great to stay together and keep working on the things we need to improve. It will be an important test and I’m ready for it. I can’t wait to be back on track."
Arvid Lindblad
"I’m really excited to do the official FIA Formula 3 test this year with PREMA Racing. We have had a really good year in F4 and I’m very happy to continue our journey together. It’s a new car and a new challenge and it will be a great opportunity. I’m looking forward to learning as much as possible."
Gabriele Minì
"I'm really excited to join PREMA for the post season test. They obviously had a great season, winning the team title. It will be interesting to discover how balanced is their car, I'm really looking forward to hit the track on Thursday".
