Ticktum to drive in Super Formula next year

The official Facebook page of the Super Formula has revealed that Daniel Ticktum will drive in the series next year, as the Red Bull talent finished runner-up in this year's Formula 3 championship.

Ticktum is hailed as one of the brightest young talents in racing, and he looked to be in pole position for the F3 championship. Then, Mick Schumacher caught some red-hot form, winning race after race, catching up and overtaking Ticktum in the championship.

The Brit will not make the promotion to F1 just yet, but the Super Formula has been a bridge to F1 for many drivers like Stoffel Vandoorne and Pierre Gasly.
