Euroformula currently has only one driver confirmed for the 2026 season, but has attracted a new team.
BVM Racing has the only named signing, with Javier Herrera joining what is anticipated to be a three-car line-up.
The 16-year-old Mexican spent 2025 racing for Jenzer Motorsport in Formula 4, starting off with a Formula Winter Series cameo. He then did two Italian F4 rounds, scoring one point, and came third in the F4 Central European Zone championship with three wins and one pole. In September he also made an E4 cameo, but that was with AKM Motorsport.
Appearing on Euroformula’s grid for the first time this year is another Italian outfit: G-Motorsport.
It plans to run two cars in the Formula 3-level championship, having previously raced in the Formula X paddock in its home country. There it won multiple titles by running first-generation F4 cars in the Pro Series and Formula Renault 2.0 cars in FX2, and it also raced with Euroformula’s previous-generation Dallara 320 car in the F2000 Italian Trophy.
“We are ready and determined to take on this new challenge in Euroformula,” said G-Motorsport’s team principal Andrea Giannetta.
“Over the past few months, we have prepared with great meticulousness, conducting several test sessions that have yielded positive results and very encouraging results. Our team has always stood out for its attention to detail, and this has allowed us to achieve several successes at the national level over the years. Now we want to look beyond our borders, and the reality organised by GT Sport seems like the ideal context in which to do so: we have gained extensive experience in managing F3 single-seaters, and the 324 model also represents a highly competitive and stimulating challenge for us to tackle.”
Successful sportscar racing team Nielsen Racing took two victories in its maiden Euroformula campaign last year, including winning on debut, and it has rebranded to Northstar Racing ahead of its sophomore campaign.
