Lirim Zendeli

Lirim Zendeli (born 18 October 1999 in Bochum, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany) is a German-Albanian racing driver, who will compete in the 2021 FIA Formula 2 Championship for MP Motorsport. A race winner in the FIA Formula 3 Championship, Zendeli graduated to F2 after finishing in eighth in F3 with Trident.

Background
Beginning his career karting in his native Germany, Zendeli stepped up to car racing in 2016, entering the ADAC Formula 4 series. Thirteenth in the Championship would result for Zendeli, earning him a second season in 2017 as he stayed with his original team. Three victories and three poles saw Zendeli improve to fourth in the series behind future F2 rivals Jüri Vips, Marcus Armstrong and Felipe Drugovich.

Wavering Wonders: 2018-2020
For 2018 Zendeli moved to the Charouz Racing System run US Racing-CHRS team, who duly aided the German racer into becoming the 2018 ADAC F4 Champion, with the German racer claiming ten wins in 21 races. Charouz duly promoted him into their FIA Formula 3 Championship squad for the inaugural 2019 season, although Zendeli's form deserted him seeing him finish down in eighteenth in the Championship. For 2020 Zendeli moved to Trident, resulting in the German racer claiming his first F3 win en-route to eighth in the Championship. That followed a run to eighth in the Toyota Racing Series at the beginning of the season.

Formula Two History
Zendeli got his first taste of an FIA Formula 2 Championship car at the 2020 Bahrain Post-Season Test, when he drove across the three-day test for MP Motorsport. The German racer was duly announced as MP Motorsport's first driver for the 2021 season on 16 December 2020.
