Red Bull have welcomed an exciting new addition to their junior program as part of their strategy to secure promising talent for future racing endeavours.
Oliver Goethe, a 19-year-old driver with a Danish-German background, is poised to join the team for the upcoming 2024 season, where he will compete in Formula 3.
His promising performances throughout the current Formula 3 season, which includes a race victory, have left a strong impression on Red Bull's talent scouts.
Goethe: I am fully committed
"I am extremely thrilled and grateful for this incredible opportunity," Goethe said, according to F1Briefings. "Racing under the Red Bull banner is a dream come true and a significant step forward in my career.
"I am eager to learn, grow, and prove myself in the coming season, and I am fully committed to doing whatever it takes to make the most of this chance."
"We have included both [Oliver Goethe and Tim Tramnitz] because they have shown a lot of potential in their respective junior classes and we believe they will have the ability to make it in Formula One," Helmut Marko told F1-Insider.
"That is the criterion why we include young drivers in the squad.
"Their development now will show how good they are and whether they can become champions one day."
