The crew Alfa Romeo confirmed that it will Ericsson as the third racer present in They connect, however, those responsible explained that the race will be run by permanent racers Kimi Raikkonen in Antonio Giovinazzi. Before that, there were rumors that it could Raikkonen missed his favorite race, most likely due to health reasons. But so far no one was able to send in the perfect solution, which is not strange.
Ericsson team IndyCar series Schmidt-Peterson has meanwhile confirmed that they will be at the team’s request Alfa Romeo enable the Swede to travel to Europe. That they are Ericsson allowed to be present in Spa only as a third racer, puts the matter in strange waters. The exact background is unknown at this time.
