Colton Herta Says He Will Not Return to Formula 2
Poor F2 form and a reported shortfall in Super Licence points threaten his path to a Cadillac F1 seat.
Overview
- Herta confirmed Friday that he has no interest in contesting a second Formula 2 season and will step away from the series as a competitor.
- He has struggled all year with Hitech, sits 19th in the standings with three rounds remaining, and missed both Madrid races after a qualifying crash.
- Herta joined F2 while serving as a Cadillac development driver to build a route into Formula 1, a plan that the season's results have failed to advance.
- Reporting says he still needs about two Super Licence points and is unlikely to earn them in the remaining races, leaving an F1 race seat with Cadillac doubtful.
- Herta says he will continue to follow F2 as a fan and is considering his next move, which could include a return to racing in the United States or a different role with Cadillac.
