Felix Rosenqvis (born 1 Novembro 1991 in Värnamo, Jönköping County, Sweden) is a Swedish racing driver, who competed in the 2016 DMSB Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters Championship on behalf of ART Grand Prix.[1] A Mercedes factory and reserve driver during his time in the DTM, Rosenqvist would make get his chance to race in the DTM after Esteban Ocon left to take a seat in Formula One.[1]

The Swede scored points on his debut race at 2016 Moscow Raceway Race 1, and would go on to finish 25th in the Championship ahead of Ocon.[2] The Swede subsequently left the series at the end of 2016, taking a full-time race seat in the FIA Formula E Championship.[3]

Background[]

After a strong karting career, Rosenqvist graduated to his first proper racing seat in 2007, taking part in the Formula Renault 2.0 Asia and Chinese Formula Renault races at the end of the season, before getting a chance at Formula Asia 2.0 for 2008.[4] The following two seasons saw Rosenqvist take the FA 2.0 honours, as well as the Formula Renault titles in his native Sweden and the NEZ Cup.[4]

The European Realm[]

For 2010, Rosenqvist obtained a drive in the German Formula Three Championship, where two wins earned him a seat in Formula 3 Euro Series for 2011.[4] The Swede claimed one win, as well as his first victory in the one-off Masters of Formula 3 event, leaving him with 2012 drives in the Euro Series, FIA European Formula 3 Championship and entries for the Masters and Macau Grand Prix.[4] Come the end of the 2012 season, Rosenqvist would be third in the European F3 Championship, fourth in the final edition of the Euro Series, and claimed second at the Macau race.[4]

2013 saw Rosenqvist mount a Championship campaign in European F3, with the Swede ultimately missing out on the title at the season finale, although he could console himself with another triumph in the Masters race.[4] 2014 saw his title campaign in F3 fall apart early on, leaving him eighth come seasons end, although an excellent display at Macau saw Rosenqvist earn yet another honour.[4] The Swede's late season flurry in 2014 saw him go on to dominate in 2015, with Rosenqvist taking thirteen wins in the European F3 Championship to take the title, and take a second win at Macau, becoming the most successful driver at F3 level in terms of honours.[4]

International Challenges[]

The 2016 season saw Rosenqvist take up opportunities across the world, including drives in the Indy Lights series in the US, Blancpain GT Series in Asia and Europe, and a test/reserve role in the DTM.[4]
