The Swedish ended last year in sixth position in the final standings. The other two drivers will be Arvid Lindblad and Gabriele Minì.

The former has been part of the Red Bull junior program since 2022, and last year he competed in the Formula 4 Italian championship. The Brits ended the season in third position. Gabriele Minì completes the team lineup. 2024 will be his second year in F3 for him too. Last year, he raced for Hitech where he had an up-and-down season.
