Talented ADAC Formula 4 drivers test in Formula 3

Great opportunity for Taylor Barnard (18) and Nikita Bedrin (16/ITA): the two PHM Racing drivers are taking their place at the wheel of a Formula 3 car this week. The duo is driving for ADAC Formula 4 team Jenzer Motorsport at the three-day test in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.

In doing so, Britain’s Barnard is following in the footsteps of his compatriot Oliver Bearman: the 17-year-old was crowned champion of the ADAC’s junior series in 2021, and finished third in his first year in the FIA Formula 3 Championship. Barnard has already picked up four victories from the first five race weekends and lies second in the championship.

Bedrin claimed his first win of the season at the Lausitzring. He showed what he was capable of in his first year in ADAC Formula 4, when he won the rookie competition in 2021. The final weekend of the season takes place from 14th to 16th October as part of the ADAC Racing Weekend at the Nürburgring.
