The 20-year-old will make his debut in Formula 2 after a strong 2025 campaign in FIA Formula 3, where he finished seventh in the drivers’ standings, claiming three victories and two top-five finishes, reports the Bangkok Post.
“I’m very proud to finally announce that I will be joining ART Grand Prix for my rookie season in Formula 2,” Tasanapol told art-grandprix.com.
“The team has proven itself over the years with great successes, so I’m confident it’s the right environment for me to take this next step. I’m excited to start this new chapter and to work with everyone in the team ahead of the season,” he added.
ART Grand Prix Team Principal Sebastien Philippe said: “Tasanapol delivered a solid season in FIA F3, with three wins and some strong performances. He now has the opportunity to take the next step in Formula 2, and we look forward to seeing how he adapts to this new challenge.”
In line with international practice, Tasanapol will race under his family name, Inthraphuvasak.
Tasanapol’s promotion completes a full representation of Thai drivers across the FIA hierarchy at all three levels of FIA single-seat racing, a significant milestone for Thai motorsport.
It was confirmed last month that Nandhavud Bhirombhakdi will drive for DAMS Lucas Oil in the 2026 Formula 3 season, while Alex Albon currently holds eighth position in the Formula 1 Drivers Championship.
The opening race of the 2026 Formula 2 season will take place at the Albert Park Circuit in Melbourne, Australia on Mar 7-8, 2026.
