Arjun Maini completes the Van Amersfoort Racing line-up🍎 for the upcom♑ing FIA Formula 3 European Championship season.

The young Indian driver finished runner-up in last year's Britishও Formula 4 championship and ꦏwill recommence his battle with eventual 2014 champion George Russell, who is also graduating into Euro F3 with Carlin.

"I'ꦡm proud of making my FIA Formula 3 European Championship debut for such an experienced team as Van Amersfoort Racing," the 17-year-old said. "I hope I will be able to learn a lot from th🏅em."

Maini finished runner-up in the Indian JK Tyre Racing series in 2013 before stepping into British Formula 4 last season. Earlier this year the Indian driver competed in the New Zealand Toyota Racing Series, notching up tw🔯o victories to finish four🎉th in the championship.

In 2011 the youngs⛦ter won the 'One from a Billion hunt', a competition run by the Force India Formula 1 Team to find India's next motorsport star.

"We are happy to have another young, greedy talent racing for our team," said team principal Friꦬts van Amersfoort. "In the off-season tests he thrilled us with his natural speed and in the Toyota Racing Series, he once again confirmed this impression by securing five podiums."

Maini joins Charl𝄹es Leclerc and Aless💖io Lorandi at Van Amersfoort Racing for the upcoming EURO F3 season.
