Replacing the aging Dallara GP2/11 chassis, the F2/18 (F2 2018) was first used in the 2018 FIA Formula 2 Championship. Powered by a Mecachrome V634T 3.4 L engine, this chassis is used by all teams taking part in the F2 series.
The car was available with complete 2018 and 2019 team and driver liveries for the first time with F1 2019.
The 2020 team and driver liveries were released with F1 2020.
