Invicta Racing is a British auto racing team currently competing in the FIA Formula 2 Championship. Owned by the Invicta Watch Group, it started racing in 2024 by gradually absorbing Virtuosi Racing's Formula 2 team, a process it completed in 2025.
History Invicta Racing traces its origins back to a title sponsorship deal inked by FIA Formula 2 Championship team Virtuosi Racing and watch company Invicta in 2023. Initially competing as Invicta Virtuosi Racing, the partnership yielded three victories for Jack Doohan in the 2023 Formula 2 season.
In December 2023, Invicta announced that it had purchased an ownership stake in the team, marking the birth of Invicta Racing while Virtuosi still controlled the outfit's operations. With Jack Doohan graduating to a test and reserve driver role with the Alpine F1 Team and Amaury Cordeel switching to Hitech, the team had a brand new driver lineup for in Indian Alpine junior Kush Maini and reigning FIA Formula 3 champion Gabriel Bortoleto. It proved to be a breakthrough season for both parties, as Bortoleto collected two wins and narrowly beat Campos Racing's Isack Hadjar to the title in his rookie year, earning a promotion to Formula One with Sauber. Maini's points in turn helped Invicta clinch the teams' championship.
In March 2025, Invicta completed acquisition of the Formula 2 squad and fully split from Virtuosi. The outfit subsequently underwent management changes, with James Robinson appointed as CEO and team principal in place of Andy Roche, who remained a consultant, while senior engineer Geoff Spear became team manager. For its first independent season, Invicta Racing signed 2024 FIA Formula 3 champion Leonardo Fornaroli along with F2 veteran Roman Staněk. Leonardo Fornaroli won the 2025 FIA Formula 2 Championship
