Doohan is about to start his second season in F2® and will look to improve upon his sixth-place finish in the Drivers’ Championship.
His 2022 season consisted of three pole positions, five podium finishes and two race victories.
The Australian drove in two Formula 1® Practice Sessions for Alpine during the 2022 season at the Mexico City and Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekends.
Doohan will kick off his 2023 campaign in Bahrain on Sunday, 5 March, before Saudi Arabia in Round 2 and then heading to Australia, where the series will debut at Albert Park.
Tickets to the FORMULA 1 ROLEX AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX 2023 are still available where you can see Jack Doohan drive.
