Rafael Câmara completes Trident’s 2025 Formula 3 line-up

Trident have become the first team to finalise their 2025 Formula 3 line-up after they announced that Rafael Câmara would be racing for them next season.

Câmara steps up to F3 after a title winning campaign in the Formula Regional European Championship where he has recorded 10 podiums including six victories.

Prior to that, the Brazilian had several title successes in karting before graduating to single seater racing in 2022. That year, he finished second in the Formula 4 UAE Championship and third in both the Italian F4 and ADAC F4 categories.

In 2023, he finished third in the Formula Regional Middle East Championship and fifth in his rookie Formula Regional European campaign.

He returned to both categories in 2024, and after finishing third in this year’s edition of the Formula Regional Middle East Championship, the Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy talent went on to win the FRECA title.

Speaking after the announcement, Câmara expressed his delight at joining Trident with his sights set on competing for next year's title.

“I’m very happy to join Trident, it is such a great Team and it’s very nice to be part of it," said Câmara. "I can’t wait to start working with everyone and see what we can achieve together. Of course the expectations are high, I think next year we will for sure be targeting to fight for the championship.

"I know it will not be easy and we still need to do a lot of work for the moment as it is not only a new car but also a new team, so everything will be new for me. As I said, I can’t wait to start to work. I always want to win but we keep our head down and we do the best we can. My goal is to be prepared for the beginning of the season, to do a good with the team and do the best I can, always, and be on the top with Trident.”

Trident Team Manager Giacomo Ricci added: "We are extremely happy and proud to announce that Rafael Câmara will be part of our line-up for the 2025 season. He is an undeniably talented driver, the reigning champion of the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine, as well as a Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy driver, and we are truly proud to have him with us. Additionally, we are excited to renew our relationship with the FDA program and its drivers."
