Gianluca Petecof

Gianluca Petecof (born 14 November 2002 in São Paulo, São Paulo State, Brazil) is a Brazilian racing driver, who made his debut in the FIA Formula 2 Championship with Campos Racing during the 2021 season. The 2020 Formula Regional European Champion and a former Ferrari Driver Academy member, Petecof would partner Ralph Boschung in his rookie F2 season, despite struggling to fund the second half of his FR Europe campaign in 2020.

Background
Petecof began his career karting in his native Brazil, winning numerous titles before a move to Europe in his mid-teens. In 2018 Petecof moved into single-seaters with a dual campaign in the Italian and ADAC Formula 4 championships, having secured backing from the Ferrari Driver Academy. A victory and a handful of podiums in Italian F4 would represent Petecof's better haul for the season, although the Brazilian youth would still finish inside the top ten in ADAC F4.

Budget Battles: 2019 - 2020
2019 saw Petecof remain in the two European based F4 series, with the Brazilian racer going on to finish second to Dennis Hauger in the Italian series. For 2020 Petecof moved up to regional F3, joining the Formula Regional European Championship, despite having funding issues. Yet, in-spite of almost losing his seat mid-season, Petecof would defeat fellow FDA member Arthur Leclerc to the title, although Ferrari would still drop the Brazilian racer from their young driver programme at the end of the campaign.

Formula 2 History
Petecof was a surprise signing ahead of the 2021 FIA Formula 2 Championship, with Campos Racing placing the Brazilian youth alongside Ralph Boschung for the campaign.
