Dorian Boccolacci

Dorian Boccolacci (born 9 September 1998 in Cannes, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France) is a French racing driver who competed in the FIA Formula 2 Championship between 2018 and 2019. Boccolacci was initially brought into F2 to replace Roberto Merhi after the summer-break in 2018, having claimed two wins in the GP3 Series, including one on his final appearance.

Boccolacci joined MP Motorsport at the 2018 Spa Feature Race, and would endure a quiet start to his F2 career by failing to threaten the points. The Frenchman would, however, steadily improve through the remaining six races of the campaign, claiming two points finishes en-route to 21st in the Championship.

For 2019 Boccolacci transferred over to Campos Racing, although rumours about how long his budget would last pursued him throughout the early part of the season. Indeed, after two pairs of points finishes, including an impressive fourth at the 2019 Monaco Feature Race, Boccolacci was dropped by Campos after ten races. The Frenchman was then handed a brief reprieve by Trident at the Silverstone, only to be dropped after the race.

After running out of funding for a serious campaign in F2, Boccolacci spent the 2020 season competing in various GT series, notably claiming a class victory at the Nürburgring 24 Hours.

Background
Boccolacci began his career in karting, before making his car racing debut in the French F4 Championship in 2014. An excellent rookie campaign saw Boccolacci finish second in the Championship, earning him a spot in the FIA Formula 3 European Championship for 2015. Unfortunately that seemed to be a step too far, too soon, for Boccolacci, who only scored a handful of points en-route to nineteenth in the Championship.

Racing Steps: 2016-2018
For 2016 Boccolacci took a more pragmatic approach, moving into the Formula Renault 2.0 NEC and Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0. The step down saw Boccolacci demonstrate his ability finishing the season second in the latter, and third overall in the former. Those results duly earned Boccolacci a spot in the GP3 Series, with the Frenchcman joining Trident.

A good maiden GP3 campaign saw Boccolacci end the season with a maiden victory, leaving the Frenchman sixth in the Championship. Boccolacci then spent the winter in the Andros Trophy, and signed up to the Venturi Next Gen Programme for Formula E. Regardless, Boccolacci would again to commit himself to the GP3 Series in 2018, claiming his second GP3 victory shortly before the summer break.

Formula Two History
Boccolacci's second GP3 Series season would, however, be interrupted, as MP Motorsport decided to promote him to the FIA Formula Two Championship midway through 2018. Indeed, they needed to find a replacement for Roberto Merhi, whom left the team after the 2018 Hungaroring Sprint Race after a disappointing run of qualifying performances. Boccolacci therefore came in to complete the rest of the season, partnering Ralph Boschung as he made his debut in Spa.

Post Formula Two Career
After being overlooked for a seat for 2020 due to his lack of funding, Boccolacci joined the ADAC GT Masters for the season, claiming one win en-route to twelfth in the Championship. The French racer also made his debut at the 24 Hours of Nürburgring, winning his class.
