Strengthening our sim racing set-up, we are delighted to welcome István Puki to the team for 2024/2025.
Hungarian István joins our team from Ferrari, where he was part of the championship-winning squad for the 2023/2024 F1 Sim Racing season.
"Joining F1's most successful team in the hybrid era is a huge pleasure and I'm looking forward to learning more on and off the track," said István.
"Last year I managed to make a huge step forward in my career and helped my team to win in any competition we took part in.
"Now I am hungry to do the same with Mercedes."
István currently holds 2 League Racing championship titles, and in 2019 he won the F1 Esports Challengers series title - the feeder series to the F1 Sim Racing World Championship.
The 22-year-old will join Dani Bereznay, Jake Benham, James Baldwin and Bono Huis in Brackley.
Dani and Jake finished P9 and P13 respectively in last season's F1 Sim Racing campaign, helping the team to a P4 finish in the Constructors'.
