Career
Lower formulae
Cordeel raced in various types on F4 and made his single seater debut in the 2017 French F4 Championship finishing 16th in the standings with 6 points. In 2018 he raced in the 2018 SMP F4 Championship finishing 8th in the standings with 2 wins and 4 podiums overall. That year he also raced in the 2018 ADAC Formula 4 Championship with ADAC Berlin-Brandenburg e.V. He finished the championship in 23rd with no points to his name but he only competed in 9 races. He then raced in the 2018 Italian F4 Championship with Mucke Motorsport and finished the season 31st in the standings with yet again 0 points finishes, although he only competed in 9 races. Before the real season got underway Cordeel raced in the 2017–18 Formula 4 UAE Championship with Dragon Motopark F4. He finished the season with a race win and 3 podiums. Cordeel's final campaign that year was in 2018 Spanish F4 Championship with MP Motorsport. Cordeel took 4 wins on the way to winning the championship with 208 points.[1] In this extremely tight season he took the 3rd most wins but was the most consistent driver of the 3 championship contenders.
Formula Renault Eurocup
2019
Cordeel made his debut in the Formula Renault Eurocup in 2019 with MP Motorsport.[2] He finished 15th in the standings with 27 points and a best finish of 7th at the race at Paul Ricard.
2020
In 2020 he stayed in the Eurocup and moved to FA Racing. He yet again finished 15th in the standings with a best result of 6th at Monza.[3]
F3 Asian Championship
In 2019 Amaury raced in the 2019 F3 Asian Winter Series with Pinnacle Motorsport.[4] He finished the winter series 10th with a best result of 4th at the Chang International Circuit. He scored a total of 22 points and didn't compete in the final round.
FIA Formula 3 Championship
Cordeel was announced to race in the 2021 FIA Formula 3 Championship with Campos Racing.[5] At the penultimate round of the season the Belgian qualified in twelfth position, leading to him starting from pole in race one. Cordeel attributed his strong qualifying to him having finally gotten to grips with the tyre degradation.[6] He was unable to use his advantage, as he was involved in a first-lap incident with Alexander Smolyar.
FIA Formula 2 Championship
2022
Cordeel took part in 2021 Formula 2 post-season testing with Van Amersfoort Racing. He was later announced as one of the team's drivers, partnering Jake Hughes for the 2022 campaign.[7]
Cordeel finished ninth in his first feature race in Bahrain but was demoted to fifteenth for speeding in the pit lane twice. He then received a ten-place grid penalty and four penalty points for failing to slow for red flags during qualifying in Jeddah.[8] He crashed during the sprint race and was forced to withdraw from the feature race as his car could not be repaired in time.[9] At the Imola round, he crashed on his way to the sprint race grid and failed to start.[10] During the feature race, he was penalised twice for speeding in the pit lane and committed six track limits violations,[11] collecting five more penalty points.[12] At the next race in Barcelona, he received another two penalty points for being out of position on the formation lap, leaving him one point away from a race ban.[13] His Monaco feature race ended after hitting the wall at the final corner.[14]
However, he collected a 12th penalty point after a collision with Olli Caldwell in the feature race in Baku, meaning he received a race ban for both races in Silverstone.
On his return to the series at the Austrian round, he achieved his highest qualifying result of the year with seventh place. He was classified eighteenth in the sprint race having been handed penalties for track limits violations and overtaking under yellow flag conditions, receiving four more penalty points. His form would improve following the summer break however, as Cordeel scored points in Zandvoort, Monza and Yas Marina, which propelled him up to 17th in the standings.
2023
After the end of the 2022 season, Cordeel took part in the post-season test with Virtuosi Racing, having been signed to the Infinity Sports Management programme just a day earlier.[15] Shortly, he was announced as a Virtuosi driver to partner Jack Doohan for the 2023 season.[16]
Personal life
Cordeel was born on 9 July 2002 in Temse, near Sint-Niklaas, Belgium. His family runs Belgian construction company Cordeel Group NV since 1934.[17][18] His older brother Ghislain is also a racing driver who competed in the Formula Renault Eurocup and the Porsche Supercup.[19]
Cordeel has been charged with speeding twice. In March 2021 he posted a video speeding on a Flemish motorway to his TikTok account, and later apologised claiming it was not him driving the car.[20] In November 2022 he fronted a Belgian court over an incident in 2020 where he was alleged to have been doing 179kph in a 50kph zone, and was given a 6-month road licence suspension and a €3,600 fine.[21]
