Dennis Hauger


Dennis Hauger is a Norwegian racing driver, member of the Red Bull Junior Team and reigning Italian F4 champion. He currently competes in the 2020 FIA Formula 3 Championship for Hitech Grand Prix alongside Max Fewtrell and Liam Lawson.

Career

Karting

Born in Oslo but raised in Aurskog, Hauger began his karting career at the age of five, winning his first race at the age of eight. In 2014, Hauger claimed the ROK International title in the Mini category and followed it up the following year by claiming Mini category titles in the Vega Winter Trophy, the Italian Karting championship and the WSK Champions Cup and Super Masters championships. In 2016, Hauger became the youngest ever champion to claim the DKM junior title and repeated this feat the following year to become the youngest DKM champion, until Harry Thompson claimed the title in 2018.

Lower formulae

In October 2017, Hauger and fellow Red Bull junior Jack Doohan were signed by the TRS Arden Junior Team to contest the 2018 F4 British Championship. Claiming four victories, Hauger ended the season fourth in the overall standings, but missed out on the Junior Championship to Doohan.
The following year, Hauger remained at Formula 4 level, but switched to Van Amersfoort Racing to contest the ADAC and Italian F4 championships. In the ADAC championship, Hauger claimed six victories, including one at the Formula One support race at the Hockenheimring, and finished as championship runner-up to Théo Pourchaire. Over in the Italian championship, Hauger scored twelve victories, including a weekend grand slam in the season finale at Monza, and sealed the title with a round to spare ahead of fellow F1 junior drivers Gianluca Petecof of Ferrari and Paul Aron of Mercedes. His performances also helped Van Amersfoort Racing to win the team championship.

Euroformula Open Championship

In August 2019, Motopark announced Hauger would make his debut in the championship at Silverstone replacing Liam Lawson, having had to wait a round due to clashes with ADAC Formula 4 at the Red Bull Ring. The race weekend saw Hauger take a sixth place finish in the first race and a fifth place finish in the second race.

FIA Formula 3 Championship

In October 2019, Hauger partook in the second and third days of post-season testing in Valencia with Hitech Grand Prix. In January 2020, Red Bull confirmed Hauger would race with the British outfit in the upcoming season together with fellow Red Bull junior Liam Lawson and Renault junior Max Fewtrell.

Formula One

In September 2017, Hauger was named as one of four new signings to the Red Bull Junior Team.
