Enzo - the grandson of two-time F1 champion Emersoꦯn Fittipaldi - joined Red Bull’s in late-2022 after a promising first full season in F2.

He finished eighth in the standings for the﷽ unfancied Charouz outfit, with his performances catching the attention of Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko.

After a slow start to 2023, Fittipaldi enjoyed his best weekend to date at Spa-Fran💜corchamps last time out, winning the sprint before following it up with a podium in the feature race.

“If you perfo𝐆rm and you ꦦdo very well - in the championship especially - opportunities will show up.

“So, right now what I'm focused on is continuing to do well, continuing t🎀o improve as a driver every time I go out on track, and hopefully, opportunities will sho🗹w.

“Dr Marko at th🔯e race weekend congratulated me for the race victo📖ry.”

“Max is꧋ winning every single race - he's just so fast," he added.

“And for young drivers coming up the ladders - personally,🌊 I look up to Max - he's one of the best, if not the best of all time.
