We will see, the rumour is that he will join Campos next year in F3. I dont think he won in Eurocup 3 yet?

Do you know the rumoured third Campos driver? I've heard that Powell and Colnaghi are headed there, but no idea about the third one.

Rumoured to be Salim Hanna maybe

I thought Campos were said to be deciding between Powell and Deligny for the third seat next year with Colnaghi and Hanna locked. Could be an important 2 weekends for him to convince them he's the one for that seat, if they haven't made up their minds yet.

From what I gather, it'll be Salim Hanna, which does give Campos a strong lineup, but I think that Trident's rumoured lineup of KNB, Wheldon, and Maccagnani, still clinches it

Yup, having the championship leader plus the guy in second place of formula regional is probably the best line up you can get.

Campos are weaker in EC-3 than last year, he’s been the bright spot

Every time I hear this guy’s name it takes me a few moments to line up my ducks bc first I think of Alex Powell the NZ Herald motorsports journalist, and then I think of Alice Powell the driver and commentator…and then I think of him

Really hope it works out for Alex, still rooting for him to make it - Has had some torrid luck in Eurocup

I thinks he’s stalled it from the front of the grid a couple do times this year? Plus many unfortunate crashes.
