The toast of all racing enthusiasts in the nation and the community, Mumbai’s Formula 2 racer Jehan Daruvala will be part of the Mumbai Falcons, who will compete in the F3 Asian Championship, that starts on January 29, 2021, in Dubai.
The Mumbai Falcons are the first Indian team to compete in the championship. Former F2 and GT1 racer Armaan Ebrahim is the team principal and eight-time national champion – Rayomand Banajee, will be their strategy and communications head.
As per Navjeet Gadhoke, owner of the year-old Mumbai Falcons, the goal is to take Indian Motorsport to new heights with the Asian F3 being a good to that end. He is confident of the driver line-up on the grid which should go all the way and win the Championship.
Jehan Daruvala will join Kush Maini at the team. Jehan recently completed his maiden F2 season on a high note by securing his first-ever win in the series in Bahrain. Those finishing in the top five of the F3 Asian Championship are eligible to earn FIA Super Licence points. The Super Licence is necessary for those who want to compete in Formula 1 – so this should help Daruvala as he looks to make the step up to the pinnacle of racing.
Italian racing team, Prema will support Mumbai Falcons’ F3 Asian Championship outing. Jehan has close ties with the team, as he competed with them in the inaugural Formula 3 season in 2019, finishing third overall in the Championship.
The Asian F3 Championship is the continent’s most competitive racing event, with nine strong teams boasting multiple F2 and F3 drivers, competing. The 2021 F3 Asian Championship will kick off with Round 1 at the Dubai Autodrome this month, on January 29-30. This will be followed up by Round 2 at Abu Dhabi’s Yas Marina Circuit on February 5-6, and Rounds 3 and 4 at the Dubai Autodrome, again on February 11-12 and 13-14 respectively. The championship will return to Yas Marina for its season finale on February 19-20.
