Thursday, 14 March: The latest driver reshuffle in a busy pre-season in the F1H2O paddock sees German driver Mike Szymura joining Cedric Deguisne’s Maverick F1 Racing.

The 24-year-old from Berlin made his F1H2O World Championship debut in 2016 moving up into the elite class after dominating the feeder F4-S Trophy Championship for three years, 2013-2015, winning a hat-trick of titles with an impressive resume, taking seven Grand Prix titles and 10 race wins.

His progress in the top flight has been steady, picking up points in his maiden season and last year, achieving one top ten in BRM Qualifying and a best race finish in seventh spot.
