Austria´s racer, who already has experience in the series, will drive one of the cars entered by the Spanish team, teaming up with Palou and Ashkanani.


Campos Racing approaches a new round of the GP3 Series, this time taking place at Silverstone – which is popularly known as “The Home of British Motor Racing”-, with a new driver joining the outfit for this round. Austrian Christopher Höher, aged 18 and born in Villach, has initiated an agreement to drive one of the Campos Racing-entered cars next weekend. The Dallara GP3/13 to be driven by Höher is that used by Samin Gómez previously. Höher had his first taste of the series last year, when he took part in two races. His racing career has been linked to different Formula 3 series, both at national and international levels.

Alex Palou and Zaid Ashkanani, they both behind the wheel two other Campos Racing´s cars, have a clear goal in mind: to score their first points. Palou will try to equal his qualifying´s pace later in the race, as the Spaniard is always brilliant on Saturday morning. Besides, Palou took two podium finishes last year in the Euroformula Open by finishing 2nd twice. For Ashkanani it will be his debut at the track.

Both races are due to start Saturday 4 July at 16.20 and Sunday 5 July at 09.25, local time.
