Van Amersfoort Racing confirm Ivan Domingues for 2025 campaign

Ivan Domingues will step up to FIA Formula 3 with Van Amersfoort Racing. The team confirmed their second driver for the upcoming campaign, with the Portuguese driver joining the Dutch outfit after a year in the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine.

Domingues made the jump to single seaters in 2022, racing in the Italian and UAE Formula 4 Championships, finishing 15th and 16th respectively.

He improved to 11th the following year in Italian F4 and matched that overall finishing position in the Euro 4 Championship in what was a dual campaign that year, racing with Van Amersfoort in both.

Domingues then made the step up to FRECA last season, remaining with the team and achieving two podiums en route to P10 in the Drivers’ Standings.

Speaking about his promotion to F3 with VAR, the 18-year-old said he was very happy to be continuing with the Dutch outfit for a third consecutive season.

“I feel very positive and confident about racing with VAR for the 2025 season in the FIA F3 Championship. It will be my third year with the team and I can’t wait for the start of this new challenge!”

VAR Team Principal Brad Joyce added: “We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Ivan to our F3 Team for the upcoming season. Ivan has been a part of our family participating in our F4 and FRECA Team already. He has shown great results and determination. We’re confident he‘ll be a fantastic addition to our lineup and we’re excited to work together to achieve more good results on track again and be part of his development.“
